Roughly a million people have been ordered to evacuate and widespread flooding and gale force winds have already struck the East coast of the USA. More than 150,000 homes have already lost power and energy companies have warned that up to three million houses and businesses could still lose power. The hurricane is slowing down but could still cost many lives. By William Tonks, World News Reporter
