The East Coast, from North Carolina to New England, took a beating from Hurricane Irene’s heavy wind and rains. Irene left a big mess in her wake with as many as 8,500 people evacuating to Red Cross shelters, around two dozen people dead, 3 million people without power and billions of dollars in damages.
