強烈なハリケーン・ハーヴィーは、テキサス州南部の主要都市コーパスクリスティ市近郊のロックポート市に上陸、勢力を弱め熱帯低気圧となりましたが、今後も内陸部での甚大な死亡事故も発生するのではと懸念されています。 Texans who rode out the most powerful hurricane to hit the United States in a decade ventured out on Saturday to see what was left of their neighborhoods in what was "now turning into a deadly inland event." The first fatality was reported in the hard-hit coastal city of Rockport.
竜巻、豪雨、洪水警報もあって、テキサス州東南部は、強風による倒木、外れた看板飛散、旗竿倒壊、屋根や壁からのレンガ剥落、等の被害発生が数日に渡って予想されます。 With dire warnings of tornadoes, torrential downpours and days of flooding to come, broad swaths of southeast Texas were littered with uprooted trees, toppled signs, flagpoles that snapped like toothpicks and clusters of bricks peeled like scabs from walls and rooftops.
