Typhoon Haiyan: Tour a street devastated by the storm
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-25400193 Version 0 of 1. Coastal towns and communities across the central Philippines were left devastated by Typhoon Haiyan - one of the most powerful storms ever to make landfall. Almost 6,000 people lost their lives in last month's storm, known locally as Typhoon Yolanda, which brought winds of up to 275 km/h (170 mph) and waves as high as 15m (45ft). Here, residents of Esperance Avenue in the port city of Tacloban, one of the worst-affected areas, remember the moment the storm hit and speak about how they are trying to rebuild their lives.
