Meer dan 130 bevestigde doden na orkaan Helene
October 1, 2024 - More than 130 people are dead and 600 others remain unaccounted for after Hurricane Helene left a path of destruction across the U.S. southeast
From Florida to Virginia, tens of thousands remained without power Tuesday morning – days after Helene made landfall as a Category 4 hurricane. The system weakened as it quickly moved island, but not before causing catastrophic flooding.
Authorities are still struggling to get water and other supplies to isolated areas affected by floods while millions remain without power.
U.S. President Joe Biden said he will visit North Carolina on Wednesday and then Georgia and Florida as soon as possible after that.
