Hurricane Maria Strengthens to a Category 5 Storm - Sam Romine

         Hurricane Maria seeks to devastate the Caribbean, US and British Virgin Isles, and Puerto Rico just days after Hurricane Irma. The difference, however, is the strength of Hurricane Maria, and how some of theses areas are still recovering from Hurricane Irma.
         This article was created at 9:15 p.m. September 18, 2017, so the information is very recent and relevant. My prior knowledge on this average, because I have read articles relating to Hurricane Harvey and Irma, and Maria follows the same model. This article was written for people in Maria's path and for people interested in staying up-to-date on the hurricane, which is easily achievable, thanks to the chart displaying where the hurricane will be headed for the next few days. This is important because it could help someone get to safety that is in the path of the hurricane. This article is important because it highlights the insanity of this hurricane season for some countries, and it is relevant because it informs what to do in the case of future hurricanes. This article mirrors those that covered Hurricane Irma and the devastation that it caused, and the authors of the articles also visited similar places to talk with the victims of the disasters.
