Grand­moth­er Cindy Boo­choon clam­bered up a set of bro­ken wood­en planks, her hands grip­ping a twist­ed piece of rust­ing steel as she hoist­ed her­self in­to what was left of her ply­wood home at Gol­con­da.

The frame of the home stood lop­sided, its walls lean­ing and the roof stripped bare, the gal­va­nized sheets peeled back and curled by the force of the winds that ripped through her home on Thurs­day night.
