Hurricane Fiona has knocked out the power for millions of people in Puerto Rico and the Domincan Republic after making landfall on Sunday evening.
Up to 40 centimetres of rainfall has been recorded in parts of the Dominican Republic, which, coupled with winds of 150km/h, has caused immense flooding in parts.
Though the tropical storm has now left the region, it is tracking north-eastwards over the western half of the Atlantic, presenting potential problems for Ireland in the near future.
