What BBN said about it

  1. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThe pictures from the aftermath of Hurricane Isaias are coming into focus this morning, and Lola Cruz is on location with what the storm left behind.

  2. Lola Cruz · Senior Field CorrespondentI'm standing on a street where the water has pulled back, and what it left is easy to see: mud along the curbs, fences down, and a line on the walls showing how high it rose.

  3. Lola Cruz · Senior Field CorrespondentBehind me, a crew is hauling soaked furniture out of a home and stacking it by the road, and the pile is already taller than the truck.

  4. Lola Cruz · Senior Field CorrespondentPhotos and video show flooded streets, damaged houses and debris scattered block after block, and residents here are starting the slow work of sorting what can be saved.

  5. Lola Cruz · Senior Field CorrespondentThe scale of what happened here is just striking, and the quiet after a storm like this still gets to me, because everyone is just walking around looking at what used to be their front yard.

  6. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThank you, Lola. Stay dry out there, and be careful where you step.
