Recorded as the most powerful super typhoon in the Atlantic with level 5, maximum winds of up to 295km / h, Irma is evaluated by US meteorologists as very rare.Landing on the coast of Florida on September 10 and heading northwest, the "monster" storm devastated the places where it passed.In the picture is a part of the empty Florida Keys chain, eroded after the storm.(Photo: AP).

According to Florida's emergency management department, about 6.3 million people across the state were ordered to evacuate before Hurricane Irma landed.Some boroughs and southern Florida cities, including Palm Beach, Broward and Miami coastal city, issued a curfew when they saw the storm approaching.However in the Florida Keys, the first place to pick up storms in the US, about 5,000 of the 30,000 residents decided not to evacuate.(Photo: AP).
After the storm, video made by drone equipment showed scenes of many of Florida's deserted areas, buried in flood waters.Houses, trees, and vehicles are scattered like garbage dumps.In the photos, houses, trees and mailboxes were obscured by the storm carrying sand from Pompano Blown beach.(Photo: Getty).

"Super storm of the century" finally passed away, the people of Florida began life again, but in front of them are rubble and serious flooding along the coast and in deeper farms in land.

It was all over," said neighbor Jen Gilreath, 33, in despair.(Photo: Reuters).

The extent of the damage has not been estimated due to communication and transportation to many severed areas.The governor of Florida said it was too early to give a specific figure.According to AIR Worldwide estimates, damage to insured assets in Florida due to Hurricane Irma will be around $ 20 to 40 billion.(Photo: Reuters).
