HURRICANE IRMA<\/strong>. Early images show devastation of Caribbean islands<\/a>. Forecast track<\/a>. Buildings destroyed<\/a>: \u2018Irma, a Category 5 storm packing winds of up to 185 miles an hour, first made landfall at 2 a.m. on Barbuda, and later in the morning passed directly over St. Martin, the National Hurricane Center reported. There were reports of flooding, major damage to buildings, and severed electricity and phone service on those islands and Saint Barth\u00e9lemy and Anguilla. The four \u201cmost durable\u201d buildings on St. Martin were destroyed, the French interior minister, G\u00e9rard Collomb, said at a cabinet meeting in Paris, \u201cwhich means that in all likelihood the more rustic buildings are probably totally or partially destroyed.\u201d\u2019<\/p>\n
