On Wednesday, images from the island of St. Martin show the level of devastation caused by Hurricane Irma.
Among the victims of the storm's 185 mph winds is the island's famed Princess Juliana International Airport.
In the photos that have emerged from St. Martin, the airport's terminal looks to be severely damaged while at least one of the airport's jet bridges has collapsed. The runway is also covered in sand and debris.
In addition, a camera located on Maho Beach at the foot of the runway shows the sheer intensity of Irma's power.
