Devastating Aftermath Of Hurricane Helene: Nearly 100 killed in Southeast flooding

A total of nearly 100 people have been killed across multiple states, including Georgia, Florida, Virginia, and the Carolinas, due to the aftermath of Hurricane Helene on the Southeast.

In Florida, where Helene made landfall, entire communities were wiped out from heavy storm surge and strong winds. Meanwhile, families and friends are still trying to reach loved ones missing since Friday's storm in Asheville, North Carolina, where roadways look like rivers.

The death toll is going to rise significantly, in mountian communities like Yancey Co they pulled at least 13 out from just one area yesterday but no one is reporting it yet.

Why are people trying to bring politics into this? What can we, as a COMMUNITY, do to help people who were living paycheck to paycheck and now don't even have a job because it no longer exists?

" 33 hundred mobilised " she just had to get the " club's " number in.

Rename North Carolina and Southwest Virginia, call it Ukraine or Taliban, and the government will instantly send you everything

You should've zoomed in on the flooding rivers for a bit.

More than nearly a 100 are dead. Come on ppl. This is awful here. We cannot get a body count bc ppl cannot be found.

20 minute visit to impacted areas for a photo op. No need to interrupt your vacation Joe. Kamala keep on fundraising for your movement. We needed help yesterday. Get your photo op, thanks.

I don’t tune in to hear the rhetoric from Harris

I wonder if this disaster will change anyone's mind about the reality of global warming/climate change.

🤦‍♀️ rather than wait to visit until it’s “not disruptive” … maybe he should use his authority to step up in the port strike crisis … but, no he said he doesn’t believe in Taft-Hartley so all the containers with all the stuff these people need will be inaccessible. One word from him gets 80 days of a pause button on that strike. 😡 how is she delivering and sending resources that will be essentially locked down within the next 24 hours?

Lot's of issues with a cup of coffee it would seem.

A question for Asheville residents. Before the hurricane came along (forecast more than a week out to hit you), did the local water utility intentionally drain off the reservoir or not?

"Not" is evidence of a crime and negligent homicide with at least 60 counts should be heard in court and RICO declared for all employees of the utility.

People shouldn't expect anything from the biden administration. God help all those people affected by this evil in Jesus Christ name pray for them people. Those who are rich help these

I’m surprised trumps not trying to delay help until he becomes president so he can have another issue to run on.
