Anniversary of Hurricane Irene

One year later, Patch looks back at Hurricane Irene.

 

One year ago today, Hurricane Irene caused damage as she made her way up the East Coast.

Hurricane Irene was downgraded to a Tropical Storm before she hit Reading and North Reading, but her rain and strong winds still managed to shake up the towns. Severe weather caused damage to power-lines and houses in the area.

Here is a live blog from the day of the storm.

Take a look at a video of North Reading residents sharing their thoughts about the storm.

Here are some photos from the day of the storm in Reading and North Reading.

Take a look at photos from the aftermath of the storm.
