Tropical Weather Latest: US Southeast struggles to recover in Hurricane Helene’s aftermath
Many areas of the U.S. Southeast are struggling to recover from the damage inflicted by Hurricane Helene. Massive rains brought by the storm have left many people stranded or homeless, and the monster tempest killed at least 84 people across several states. Helene also has caused billions of dollars in destruction. Several million were still without power Sunday, and many face a continued threat of floods. Helene blew ashore in Florida’s Big Bend region as a Category 4 hurricane late Thursday and then quickly moved through Georgia, the Carolinas and Tennessee.
