As of Sunday night (12/12), the United States was still searching for survivors and was counting the damage caused by a series of hurricanes that hit the southeast of the country on Friday night (10/12).

Considered one of the worst weather events ever recorded in U.S. history, the hurricanes wreaked havoc in six states, according to the country’s president, Joe Biden.

The hardest hit was Kentucky, which declared a state of emergency. There, at least 80 people died, dozens in the town of Mayfield, who ran a candle factory during the events – and were reduced to a mountain of twisted iron.

As of Sunday, about 40 of the estimated 110 employees on the unit had been rescued. The factory has been working with extra shifts to handle orders for Christmas.
