PBS reported in October that 2017 was wrapping up to be a record-setting year for natural disasters in the U.S. And devastation has only continued to rock many communities. Let’s take a look at the major events.

As the year ends, you can still help through donating toward relief efforts for each of them. We have links to help you with that.

Hurricane Harvey

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration called the 2017 hurricane season “extremely active.” Harvey was the first of three major hurricanes to make landfall in the U.S. in August and September. It was also the first major hurricane to make landfall in the U.S. since 2005.

Harvey hit Rockport, Texas as a Category 4 hurricane in late August and eventually turned into a tropical storm. According to NOAA data, it deluged nearly 7 million people with over 30 inches of rain. Some people got up to 50 inches. The record-breaking rainfall led to major flooding in and around Houston. Over 30,000 people were displaced. Over 200,000 homes and businesses were damaged. More than 80 people died.

To give to the ongoing Harvey relief efforts, see the Rebuild Texas Fund. The Greater Houston Community Foundation will also be accepting donations for Harvey relief through December 31, 2017. Charity Navigator recommends these charities for donating to Harvey relief efforts.

Hurricane Irma

Texas was still reeling from Harvey when Irma barreled into toward Florida as a Category 4 hurricane, after hitting the U.S. Virgin Islands as a Category 5. In the Florida Keys, 25 percent of buildings were destroyed, NOAA reports. Sixty-five percent of buildings were significantly damaged. The storm broke records, with winds staying at 185 mph for 37 hours. 

Irma ended as yet another deadly hurricane in 2017, killing over 70.

Hurricane Maria

To end the trio came Maria, hitting Puerto Rico as a Category 4 hurricane after hitting St. Croix, a U.S. Virgin Island. Puerto Ricans received up to 37 inches of rain, catastrophic infrastructure damage and widespread power outages. Even though Maria hit in September, some on the island are still without power. Earlier this month The New York Times reported that the death toll from Maria was above 60, and potentially much higher.

You can find local Maria relief funds on Global Giving’s website. Here are Charity Navigator’s recommendations for charities accepting Maria donations. Business Insider also compiled this list of Puerto Rico-based charities.

Wildfires

The NOAA reported that across the U.S. before October, over 8.4 million acres had been burned by wildfires in 2017, including a million acres in Montana. And that was before the record-smashing Thomas fire broke out in California on December 4.

CNN recently reported that the Thomas fire has burned over 280,000 acres and destroyed over 1,000 homes, businesses and other structures. 

But wildfires had already ravaged parts of California before the Thomas fire began. CNN also reported that before the Thomas Fire broke out, wildfires in California had cost $10 billion in damages.

The Thomas fire has only been responsible for two deaths. Other wildfires this year have claimed over 40 lives in the U.S.

Floods

In February many Californians suffered not from fire, but from flooding. The northern and central parts of the state experienced heavy rainfall that caused five deaths and over $1 billion in damages, according to the NOAA.

A few months later, states in the Midwest and the South were also hit with severe storms, heavy rain and flooding which resulted in 20 deaths.

Many of us are poised to celebrate the new year. But communities around the nation (and the world) are still recovering from these and other massive disasters. For them, the new year brings more difficulty and uncertainty. If you can, consider donating to one of the many charities linked above.
