我們現(xiàn)在才知道多里安的影響

Hurricane Dorian was the strongest storm ever to make landfall in the Bahamas. A powerful Category 5, Dorian lingered over the Abaco Islands and Grand Bahama Island from Sept. 1 to Sept. 3, flattening homes, toppling trees, causing severe flooding and causing at least 45 deaths.

颶風(fēng)多里安是有史以來在巴哈馬群島登陸的最強風(fēng)暴。從9月1日到9月3日，威力強大的5級颶風(fēng)多里安在阿巴科群島和大巴哈馬群島上空徘徊，夷平了房屋，推倒了樹木，引發(fā)了嚴(yán)重的洪水，造成至少45人死亡。

Recovery efforts are underway in the Bahamas, but the death toll is expected to rise significantly.

巴哈馬正在進行恢復(fù)工作，但死亡人數(shù)預(yù)計將大幅上升。

"So many families have been deeply impacted," said Bahamas Prime Minister Hubert Minnis in a nationwide address, saying the storm "has left generational devastation across Abaco and Grand Bahama."

巴哈馬總理休伯特·明尼斯(Hubert Minnis)在全國講話中說，“很多家庭受到了嚴(yán)重影響。”

After leaving the Bahamas, the slow-moving hurricane made its way up the East Coast of the United States and Canada. The storm had maximum sustained winds of about 115 mph when it made landfall on Cape Hatteras, North Carolina on Friday. The downgraded storm continued up the coast, making landfall on Saturday near Nova Scotia.

離開巴哈馬群島后，緩慢移動的颶風(fēng)向美國和加拿大東海岸移動。周五，風(fēng)暴在北卡羅來納州哈特拉斯角登陸時，最大持續(xù)風(fēng)速約為115英里每小時。降級風(fēng)暴繼續(xù)沿海岸移動，于周六在新斯科舍省附近登陸。

While the U.S. went relatively unscathed in comparison, it will take weeks and months to assess the damage in the Bahamas and even longer to rebuild, especially on the hardest hit areas of Grand Bahama and the Abaco Islands, where tens of thousands have been left homeless, sparking an evacuation to safer ground.

而美國相比相對較小,需要幾周和幾個月評估損害在巴哈馬群島甚至更長的時間來重建,尤其是在受災(zāi)最嚴(yán)重地區(qū)的大巴哈馬島和阿巴科島,成千上萬的人無家可歸,引發(fā)疏散到安全地帶。

Here's a snapshot of what the storm has left in its wake so far.

以下是迄今為止風(fēng)暴過后留下的景象。
