This is the true story of Diandra and Adam who, barely three months after their wedding, awake in their home on Tortola, British Virgin Islands, to startling news. In less than 24 hours, Hurricane Irma has escalated from a Category 2 to a Category 5 Hurricane and will soon make a direct hit on their island paradise, leaving it unrecognizable and in desperate need of help. With airports closed and time running out, they board up their home and prepare for what no one has predicted: a passage through the eye of the strongest Atlantic hurricane ever to strike land in the Caribbean. Just as the bricks and mortar of their home will be put to the test, so will their love and personal strength, the integrity of their community, the resilience of Mother Nature and the human spirit. "Irma Was Here" unveils the personal side of climate change. A bellwether of super storms of the future due to global warming, Irma broke several world records. She was the longest lasting Category 5 hurricane and also the strongest recorded open Atlantic hurricane. Followed closely by Hurricane Maria, which devastated Puerto Rico as a Category 4 hurricane only two weeks later, Irma prompted climate scientists to suggest higher categories be added to the Saffir-Simpson Scale, due to her ferocious winds in excess of 178 mph, second only to the Labor Day Hurricane of 1935. For the people of the Virgin Islands, whose homes she destroyed and whose lives she catapulted into chaos, Irma has left an indelible psychological scar. For the world, she leaves a warning.
