More than 230 deaths have been attributed to Hurricane Helene which made landfall in Florida on Sept. 26. The storm dumped more than 40 trillion gallons of rain across six states in less than a week, including nearly 31 inches in one North Carolina town. Even a week after the storm, still more than a million people were without power in the Carolinas and Georgia. Alli Conine, director of member services and corporate communication for Wheatland Electric, said a dozen Wheatland linemen from Kansas headed to South Carolina last Thursday to assist with restoration efforts.
