Two weeks after Irma, Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands were torn apart by Hurricane Maria.
Hurricane Maria was the 10th most intense Atlantic hurricane on record. It knocked out around 80% of Puerto Rico's electrical grid, prompting an 11-month operation to restore power.
A year after the hurricane struck, Puerto Rico revised the official death toll to 3,059, making Maria the deadliest storm of the 2017 Atlantic hurricane season.
