Overview: Hurricane Ivan killed more than 100 people and caused billions of dollars in property damage as it made its way across the Caribbean Sea and hit the U.S. Gulf coast. The storm also set off tornadoes, causing yet more destruction. In addition, the storm wiped out power to several regions, made roads impassable, and shut down telephone service. In some areas, such as the Cayman Islands and Jamaica, looting was reported, and authorities had to institute curfews as they worked to restore order. In less stable areas as well as those without food and water supplies, businesses had to contract with private firms to evacuate their people after the storm passed.
