Impact of Hurricane Helene

The devastating effects of Hurricane Helene have led to a rising death toll, currently standing at 95, with officials expressing concern that it may increase as many individuals remain unaccounted for. Various states, including North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, Tennessee, Georgia, and Florida, have reported fatalities, while hundreds of roads are closed, significantly hindering the delivery of essential supplies. Residents in areas like Johns Pass, Florida, have described the emotional toll of the disaster, with many losing their homes, cars, and possessions, highlighting the overwhelming loss experienced by the community. Over two million people are still without power, and President Joe Biden is set to visit the affected areas later this week to assess the situation and offer support.
