What Does the Most Damage during a Hurricane?

Definately water!! :-)
Next is where homes are not really designed to handle hurricane weather.
I'm amazed that the actually allowed people to stay in places like mobile home parks there - that is utter lunacy and probably contributed to the death toll.
The first thing that gets "wiped" in more hurricane prone countries are any "shack towns" - the death toll there can be massive. 12,000 were killed in Guatamala a few years ago because of this and the effects of water/mudslides.
