HUNTSVILLE, Ala. ( WHNT ) — While Hurricane Milton has dominated the headlines the past few days, people in several states, including North Carolina are still reeling from Hurricane Helene.
Helene made landfall in Florida two weeks ago, carving a path of destruction in Florida, South Carolina, Georgia, North Carolina and Tennessee.

Tommy Davis, the Executive Director of the North Alabama Homebuilding Academy (NAHA), told News 19 that he was shocked to see the extent of the damage.
“Just to see the change in the way that the flooding ravaged the countryside there, is just amazing,” he said.
Davis told News 19 that he just visited the mountains of North Carolina recently.
“My wife and I actually rented a cabin up in that area this past summer for a vacation,” he said.
