"HAMILTON, Bermuda - The dark clouds of Fabian lifted Saturday, revealing
the devastation wrought by the most powerful hurricane to hit Bermuda in 50
years: pulverized trees, shorn rooftops and tens of thousands of homes
without power.

Power was still out in 26,000 homes because debris was blocking repair
crews. Dozens of people remained in five shelters, and others were staying
at hotels because of damage to their homes. Hospitals had power but many
hotels were running on generators.

Hurricane Fabian's lashing winds shattered part of a wall in the airport
causeway and officials said a decision would be made late Saturday on
whether to reopen on Sunday.

There were reports of widespread flooding, and unconfirmed reports of
looting. Many of Bermuda's famed golf courses were in ruins."
