It can often take months to truly scope the needs and challenges after disasters, and communities face a long journey to recovery.
Florida residents and officials were assessing the damage after powerful Hurricane Milton brought strong winds, heavy rains and tornadoes.
For some residents of storm-prone Southeastern states, the best indicator of a hurricane's severity can be found at the local Waffle House.Â
Milton’s growth Monday sets the stage for a dangerous storm surge in Tampa Bay and potential mass evacuations less than two weeks after a catastrophic Hurricane Helene swamped the coastline.Â
Rescue crews faced obstacles at every turn in North Carolina's remote mountains in the rush to reach those stranded or missing by Hurricane Helene's rampage that killed more than 200.
Widespread devastation left behind by Hurricane Helene came to light Monday across the South, revealing a wasteland of splintered houses, crushed cargo containers and mud-covered highways.Â
Authorities rushed to airlift supplies and restore communications and roads in flooded Asheville, North Carolina, on Sunday as Florida residents gathered for church services amid the wreckage of Hurricane Helene.Â
Now a post-tropical cyclone, the storm was expected to hover over the Tennessee Valley on Saturday and Sunday, the National Hurricane Center said.
Hurricane Helene left an enormous path of destruction across the southeastern U.S. on Friday, snapping trees like twigs, tearing apart homes and sending rescue crews on desperate missions.
Hurricane Helene roared ashore as a powerful Category 4 storm in a sparsely populated region of Florida.Â
A slow-motion catastrophe is playing out in the coastal North Carolina village of Rodanthe, where 10 houses have fallen into the Atlantic since 2020.
Rain is likely to start after midnight Thursday and will likely pick up during the day Friday, according to the National Weather Service in St. ²»Á¼Ñо¿Ëùµ¼º½ÍøÖ·.
