Helene's death toll now over 125 as North Carolina towns remain cut off after catastrophic flooding
BOONE, N.C. - Crews are continuing their work to clear debris, restore power and get supplies into North Carolina communities that remain isolated due to the destruction caused after Hurricane Helene made landfall in Florida last week, leaving more than 125 people dead in several states across the Southeast.
The Category 4 hurricane made landfall along Florida's Big Bend region late Thursday night, with winds of 140 mph and a devastating storm surge. As the storm traveled across the U.S., Helene left behind widespread destruction from the Sunshine State through Georgia into the Carolinas and Tennessee Valley.
At least 126 people have been confirmed dead across six states – Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia and Tennessee.
