Flooding and landslides strike southern Appalachians after hurricane pummeled region and wreaked havoc
More than 50 people are confirmed dead and almost 3.5 million are without power on Saturday, after strong winds and torrential rain from Hurricane Helene wreaked unprecedented havoc across large swathes of the south-eastern United States.
Historic flooding continued over parts of the southern Appalachians on Saturday, as first responders worked to reach stranded communities in trying conditions while local authorities began to assess the scale of the damage and displacement.
“It looks like a bomb went off,” said Georgia’s governor, Brian Kemp, after surveying the damage from the air on Saturday.
This is not natural. This wasn’t some freak, once in a lifetime storm. This is the result of over a century of human climate change. This will get worse
Well well well, if it isn’t the consequences of our inactions
This is the new normal. It’s not natural because it’s our fault, but it’s the new normal.
Good thing everyone in america kept buying bigger SUVs, that way the cars still peek out over the waterline. If we expect our storms to get worse, we should just keep buying bigger SUVs and we’ll be fine!
Doesn’t matter, they don’t care, to them this was caused because we let gays serve in the military or some shit.
God wouldn’t have struck them with a flood unless other people less devout than them hadn’t done evil things, clearly this was a flood incited by Trans-culture.
central SC here, on my second day without power, and since i got a well, also without water, i see lineman working and passing by, but damage has been widespread, so may be a while before i get power back, i just flushed my toilets with pond water in a bucket 😂
For anyone in the area of Unicoi, TN, there is a group meeting at the high school tomorrow morning to help clean debris and distribute supplies.
