Irene

As most of you know, the very strong hurricane called IRENE made landfall in New Jersey, the east coast of the US.

I heard that New York City ordered citizens to evacuate.
We all hope it will not cause a disaster.

One of our American friends, her name is Irene. She emailed me to tell me that she got a lot of teasing from her friends, like " Are you working hard?".

She lives in an area which is on a way the hurricane is predicted to pass.
It might produce flooding rains, downed trees and widespread power outrages.

Hope everything will be fine.
