Hurricane Harvey batters US coast   + 9Show All 26 Ağustos 2017  Yeni ŞafakThe hurricane, initially a Category 4 and the most powerful storm in over a decade to hit the mainland United States, made a first landfall northeast of Corpus Christi, Texas, around late on Friday with maximum winds of 130 miles per hour (209 km per hour). Harvey was downgraded to a Category 2 hurricane by the National Hurricane Center early on Saturday as it moved slowly over parts of Texas at about 6 mph (10 km per hour).

Corpus Christi, Texas, around late on Friday with maximum winds of 130 miles per hour (209 km per hour). Harvey was downgraded to a Category 2 hurricane by the National Hurricane Center early on Saturday as it moved slowly over parts of Texas at about 6 mph (10 km per hour). The storm was expected to meander across the coast and up through Louisiana for days, with forecasts for storm surges of up to 13 feet (4 metres) and over 3 feet (90 cm) of rain.</p></figcaption></figure></p><br data-card-id="46a8ce57-fc46-4bd9-01d0-dbc6179f2d5d" data-card-type="Text"></div></div><div class="footer-side wf"><div class="tag-main"><ul><li class="tag"><a class="tag-link" title="US">US</a></li><li class="tag"><a class="tag-link" title="Hurricane Harvey">Hurricane Harvey</a></li></ul></div></div></article><section class="right-col-main"> <div id='div-gpt-ad-1443772064622-0' style='height:250px; width:300px;'>
