Met1985 Posted Thursday at 01:03 AM Share Posted Thursday at 01:03 AM I have to say if it's not been stated but the models did one hell of a job at a long lead time also. The globals basically nailed this a week out. That's really when Cantons Mayor Zeb Smathers started preparing for the storm. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ICON actually had the best track from days out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BooneWX Posted Friday at 10:37 PM Author Share Posted Friday at 10:37 PM I was looking back at some of the wind damage from this storm and man. It was such an unusual setup from that standpoint. To have hurricane force gusts region wide in western NC from a gulf storm is something I still can’t wrap my brain around 3 weeks later. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bodies are still being dug out of the ruble... And yet the death count isn't moving much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cried like a chump in 2019, but after a while I just got on with life. It isnt everything. But I do feel really bad for West North Carolina. It's getting cold up there already and those people need relief! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gman Posted Sunday at 07:08 PM Share Posted Sunday at 07:08 PM The Charleston P&C has done an excellent job covering Helene. This is an example. “I've covered disasters around the world. After Helene ripped through the NC mountains, I went home.” https://www.postandcourier.com/news/helene-north-carolina-damage-first-person/article_0b2d62ac-89a2-11ef-a67d-5f340e06930a.html https://www.postandcourier.com/hurricanewire/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
