The feedbacks of nature or the reactions that lead to the quality defects of humans. This is the progress that voters, politicians, the media and many more people are supporting.The deficiencies in quality show themselves in many ways. The majority blame each other even though they are failing extremely badly in every way. The quality problem shows very clearly that there is no prospect of improvement any time soon. Humans are not capable of adapting to nature. The masses survive by promoting destruction. A food forest that shows that a field does not have to be the only solution. The masses do not realize what old views promote and how they can influence opinions and criteria here. People have a problem with reality and many people show this very clearly. The majority of those affected do not recognize their own involvement because their abilities do not allow it. The development here makes many problems visible and people pass them on to accept them. The word nation is associated with wars and a lot of mistrust. People do not see how such views are connected to property attitudes. The word nation is a driver like money or greed. There are positive and negative drivers or words and the conditions associated with them that act as drivers. People often think that a word is written in stone before us. They have a foundation that is not entirely solid or they are all part of a development. They stand there like an apple that still needs a little time to ripen. People show a values problem and this is also connected to the meaning of the words. You can't react well if you can't see how important the reaction is. Nobody is perfect, what is shown here is not good. The information makes it possible to live better and safer lives. The masses do not have the ability to adequately evaluate old information. If you accept old information, you quickly end up with poor critical skills. The old testing methods have little to do with the new ones, but most people don't see that. Nature reacts and the reaction knows no mercy. The masses have a problem with the word respect and the lack of these criteria also leads to many trust problems. The thing with trust is a problem that is demonstrated by thousands of more examples. Man is a born failure who makes himself into a highlight too quickly. This is just the beginning and one thing is certain: there is more on the way and it will come quickly. The saying that people only react when the last tree is dead is no longer of any help to people who are dead. I think that there will be many more pictures like this before the last tree dies. Humans are subject to instincts like lemmings or worse, and then they drown too.
I live in the Upstate of South Carolina and this feels like living through an apocalypse. I never thought I’d ever see anything this destructive in my life, prayers to you all out there affected by the storm.
@@marvinpercival4717 Don't know who you listening to BUT there is NO storm in or forming in the Gulf. There is THREE storms in the Mid-Atlantic, right now, heading north East. There is Issac, Kirk, and Joyce. Issac will pass Ireland on 10/3, Kirk in Mid-Atlantic of Cape Verde's island swinging north, and Joyce, a tropical storm, is basically on same path as Kirk! Looking at Radar and Satellite for Gulf nothing of notice. You really need to learn to use satellite and radar to double check the climate extremist! Hurricanes ARE NOT TO BE TAKEN LIGHTLY! Understand devastation is the bread and butter of the government, spend lots of your $$$$, federal and State!
This isn't the time for would of should of. These are fellow Americans and they need help. I'm sure everyone is doing what they can. It is very important to look out for your neighbors. You know who your neighbors are so get them accounted for. Find them. Make sure they are ok. The gov or fema does not know these folks like you do. Find your neighbors. This is so sad.
Agree however at the same time it’s a reality check to ask why the eff are we sending billions to a counterproductive war in Ukraine. we have homeless, addicts, veterans, natural disasters etc
In emergencies like this is when we all need to look out for eachother. I hope everyone in the path of destruction is getting the help they need from friends, neighbours, officials & strangers. There but for the grace of god...
My prayers are for all the people in this area. This is the the time to forget about politics and distraction and Diddy mess. God is trying to bring all people together to help one another.. I wish I could be there to help. North Carolina it's time to step out on Faith and help one another 😢😢😢
Hundreds of miles away from the ocean and Mother Nature can do this. To think in the grand schemes of Earth, hurricanes are mild to what Mother Nature could actually do. Simply awe inspiring.
No such thing as Mother Nature this is. the Lords doing !! He controls the weather. This is his wrath that we all deserve. We are sinful human beings and we deserve all of this that is happening..
We survived Ian and now Helen, plus three other hurricanes. Flooding causes the damage, and it can sometimes sneak up on you. Helen took out most of our west coast here in Florida. The damage is unreal with this Hurricane.
Prayers for the 30+ that didn't make it 30+🙏, 30+🕊️, and 30+💐 and Praying for the people that are missing that they survive and they are okay! 🙏 for the missing!
These floods uncovered many homes, peoples lives and those who passed on, whether in a week ago or generations ago, washed away. There are even older cemeteries that go unreported who will leave many grieving for time on
I guess deploying drones to 1) Search 2) delivery food/meds/supplies ( think toilet paper ) 3) place mine cell phone towers in strategic places - to reestablish cell phone contact. Clamp temp towers to tall structures such as trees or telephone poles still standing. or drive in and erect portable close to cutoff communities, or all of the above, preferably, all of the above.
And for some reason truck drivers who are bringing in supplies are getting their tires slashed... Does geoengineering weather thing and the port strikes are being done all on purpose
The red Cross has a call in line in Florida that you can report yourself alright in case loved ones can't get hold of you. I recall this is how Craigslist was formed during Katrina. Does NC have a similar plan?
yes! And the billions is military equipment left in Afghanistan will be asked to help with the rescue IF THE BIG GUY GOT 10% FROM THE RED CROSS APPALACHIA WOULD HAVE BETTER ATTENTION
🙏🤗🇺🇸PRAISE AND THANK THE LORD …… FOR ALL “First Responders” EVERYWHERE🇺🇸🙏…so thankful to see the supplies getting in even with the “ MULE PACKS” WOW!! Thank You Lord for the Mules doing mercy trips and the people who are taking them to the needed areas where modern vehicles cannot go🙏🤗🇺🇸
? Seems like they have resources available and are explaining who they saved/their strategic plans to move forward with “all the support they need”. Where is the struggle?
They're already doing that. There's so much damage and the mountains make it difficult to reach people and signals. My family in that area are stuck in a cell phone dead zone on the side of a mountain with the bridge and road washed away. There's so many of those little places that emergency services are still trying to reach
Only 6% of Americans have flood insurance on their homes. The good news is most of these victims have been saving money for decades and setting it aside for just this kind of disaster, instead of wasting it on flood insurance, which is a giant scam.
SERCH THE NEW RIVER FOR BODYS,GET AIRCRAFT TO SPOT FLOATING BODYS BEFOR THEY POP AND SINK TO BECOME FISH FOOD.SERCH DEBRI FOR BODYS ..GET PEOPLE HAULING IN FOOD WATER.GET OFF YOUR ASSES AND HELP IF YOURE ABLE..THIS WAS A MAJOR FLOOD WITH SERIOUS DAMAGES.
This is same worst in recorded history of the area , as what Vietnam Thailand Laos Burma and SE China just damaged by 2 Typhoons YAGI and the one days after that….
Did people not take it that serious because they kept hearing it was just a level 2 hurricane. That's what I kept hearing on the news. Obviously it was a much higher level. If they had known the true level, maybe they would have acted differently. How sad and the survivors have a right to be angry. Horrible.
By level 2 do you mean Cat 2? That was earlier in the development of Helene. When it ramped up to a Cat 3 and then a Cat 4 that was repeatedly across every news outlet. What wasn't recognized was the fact that Helene dumped additional rainfall in the southeast where a previous storm had rained for a couple days. Thus the flooding ended up being worse than anyone expected especially in NC and TN where 3 dams nearly failed.
The hurricane picked up all that warm ocean moisture and dumped it. I bet in the future 60 to 70 inches of rain is possible in a big storm. Build ya a ARCH 👍
"Warm ocean moisture" - how can you not understand how it works in 2024? How are you incapable of using all the knowledge we have and learning it in minutes on the Internet? You really are at the bottom when it comes to knowledge everyone else understands at the age of five in kindergarten. This is the real tragedy.
Is the Airport closed or not? And why did TicTok just ban a billion accounts? Is that the right way forward in a catastrophe such as this? Cut off *ALL* communications? Anyhow glad to see it took a stock market open to realize there was an actual crisis. Short gold strong sell😊
Praying for all, this BLUE Democrat is ready to send money to NC Donate; I once lost everything to Hurricane Fran so I know all these AMERICANS need ALL AMERICANS as brothers and sisters standing side-by-side. We will be there for you! Peace and special prayers for the responders, for many years I was one of those individuals! Be Strong America!
To bad the Haitians weren't relocated here they could have educated the local population on how serious hurricanes can be and how to move to higher ground for safety during flooding events. When Trump gets elected again and eliminates the department of Education, NOAA and FEMA to name a few these bad things won't happen anymore.
It is up to your governor. People are putting their lives on the line to help. What has been asked for Cooper is getting. Biden has asked. He didn't wait. Quit badmouthing your help and be thankful that Trump wasn't able to shut down the government!!!
sorry to say and see it really before my eyes what i said 2 months ago i think well it here GOD does love americans we nothing special and really today even more so trump 100% right and on point . there a reason he not dead we need to think about it soon . GOD can but not always gives another chance just saying this stuff just going to get so much worse please listen put these actions to reverse .
It's sad how many people keep making baseless partisan statements. Biden issued emergency assistance 2 days ago to all the states affected by Helene!! Look in the mirror to see who is not functioning!!
Sure, you can. Literally, every cell tower and gas station in Switzerland has at least three redundancies and generates its own power, has satellite backup uplink and direct beam radio backup, and secondary antennas to be deployed in 20 minutes. You all live in the Stone Age and don't even know it.
I agree marty. He seems way to calm considering the loss of life and property. What's up with these politicians? I don't even think they are human anymore. Why didn't he warn the people, he had to have known the rain was causing dangerous conditions?
@@kitecorbin3914 I was not laughing at them, I was observing they are on team blue. I live near by, in a team Red area and everyone is going in to help out.
@@Invisbleanonymous That's good, I must have misread that. I am a republican myself, and I have been giving out clean well water and canned food to my friends and family in our rural area. I was super lucky and only lost power for a day and a half. Our well pump is electric, so we had no running water until then. The storm was so mild here that it was like a regular summer rain. The well water is fine. My brother works for Fletcher, and he has been out there cutting trees out of the road and off of power lines. We have all been stressed and frazzled through this. Even with electricity and clean water, it still feels like a 'hurry up and wait' situation. The most important thing is to stay home if you are not an emergency worker, which I have been doing other than to check to see if the stores have opened up yet. Good luck and be safe out there, brother.
Yes because poor Appalachian people absolutely have a say in fvcking climate change. Honestly, instead of sitting behind your keyboard running your mouth about "climate change" why don't YOU do something and volunteer to help these communities in need.

@@silvursprings No dude - YOU are just looking for an excuse to not make any changes to you overly consumptive life. Dont dress your selfishness up in philosophy - you are just selfish
This shouldn't have happened. They had to have known that the rain would eventually brake the dams and the people were in danger. Who dropped the ball here, and why? Prayers for those that are affected by this tragedy.
The flooding has not broken the dams last I heard. And you sound judgmental for which there is never a good reason. How do judgments bring people together??
Will the people in this area learn from this that climate change is real or will they still elect politicians that want to ban climate change? Warmer Gulf = Stronger Hurricanes.
Not the time or place. Flooding close to this happened in 1916 as well, though new records this time, because it rained a week solid here before the hurricane arrived... Also Asheville is a very liberal town with a lot of recent transplants from California. Maybe they brought this with them?
What is that even supposed to mean? Are you implying these small communities are directly at fault for climate change? Either way… I’m sorry your parents didn’t raise you better
This was 2 weather systems that merged together. There were 3 weather systems in one area. 2 merged and the 3rd kept it from moving back out to the Atlantic.
Asheville is a very liberal area and most do believe in climate change and vote accordingly. Politics is not the topic at the moment so can the heartless crap. All I’ve seen from the “party of compassion” is hateful nonsense towards conservatives. I don’t care about anyone’s political affiliation in this moment. I care about the people that need help. They are our friends, neighbors, and family and they are people that matter regardless of if I agree with them on anything and my first thought is for their safety not who they voted for.
No one is coming to save you people, you need to save yourself. It amazes me me that everyone knew good and well spoken that this was coming, but still have a empty gas tank and no water stored, no food, propane. If you try hard enough to be a victim, that is exactly what you will be
Thinking this way is not only inconsiderate to those who are dead, missing, or trapped in inaccessible areas, but it is also dangerous. These people need our support, not blame for the unavoidable situation that thousands of them have been put in.
@@JordanJParsons most made a conscious decision to be victims by not making some simple preparations, you can cry about your hurt feelings or learn a lesson from it, that is your decision
Funderburgh, where the hell they came up with these names..The military can fly into areas cut off, once they can find flat area to land..What taking them so long
The hospital in Erwin had over 50 people stranded on the roof and helicopters had to air-lift everyone off the roof. Each helicopter could take a few people and fly them somewhere safe.
Honey, you are running your brain on emotion. Climates change is a monetary shakedown. Cloud seeding and Geo engineering is a real thing. The air force has been doing it since the 60s. The information is out there. Many government journals written over the years on this. Take a look, it's in a book, reading rainbow. Not everything the TV tell you is reality.
Unplug your computer and cell phone charger and turn your electricity off and use candles , I’m sure that will help . BTW who is the largest contributor of green house gasses on the planet ?, maybe you should GO talk with them.

sorry to say and see it really before my eyes what i said 2 months ago i think well it here GOD does love americans we nothing special and really today even more so trump 100% right and on point . there a reason he not dead we need to think about it soon . GOD can but not always gives another chance just saying this stuff just going to get so much worse please listen put these actions to reverse .
its unfortunate we do not have a functioning president now.
Like that would matter lol.
Biden is sending aid there I heard it, yesterday sometime. What more do you want from him? 🤷
You should be ashamed of yourself. Take your politics and go home.
It's sad how many people keep making baseless partisan statements. Biden issued emergency assistance 2 days ago to all the states affected by Helene!! Look in the mirror to see who is not functioning!!
What good is a cell phone if it doesnt work this is 2024 😮
can't run a cell tower without huge amounts of electricity and fiber optic connections.
Sure, you can. Literally, every cell tower and gas station in Switzerland has at least three redundancies and generates its own power, has satellite backup uplink and direct beam radio backup, and secondary antennas to be deployed in 20 minutes.
You all live in the Stone Age and don't even know it.
Ong this is very sad 😢 🙏🏻❤️🤍💙🇺🇲🪽 😢😢😢
And the governor reads a script to ..can any of y'all think of your own words instead of saying what someone else tells u too.. shameful
No one gives a chit if they are reading a script. As long as the people are getting the help and information they need. SMH
I agree marty. He seems way to calm considering the loss of life and property. What's up with these politicians? I don't even think they are human anymore. Why didn't he warn the people, he had to have known the rain was causing dangerous conditions?
@@Shelley-j2y and they all do that ..like it's a roll play .
@@Shelley-j2y Everyone was warned over a week in advance. What part of hurricane warning & flash flooding didn't you understand?
@@Shelley-j2yYou kids are really reaching to find something to complain about. Get a fa-king life.
Why isn't the National Guard being activated? Don't they have choppers?
They are already flying.
They have been.
Maggie Smith died....let's show some respect ....its just rain....
Very inappropriate comment.
@maestoso47 it's called sarcasm.....the word is derived from Latin meaning 'to tear flesh'...
And you were laughing when this happened to China?
@@harryo2253Wrong. I was laughing at China.
@@silvursprings So are admitting to being a nasty person?? You can only go up from there boy!
@@michaeldeierhoi4096 Michael, calm your tits. Wipe your tears. Not everyone likes China's continual dry railing as much as you.
And people said Miami would be under water. 😂🤣😅 I wonder how many of those comments came out of this town🤣😅😂
They are on team blue for sure.
Asheville is a very liberal area. And you are laughing at them. Have some decency.
Miami is definitely going under.. you better run now.
@@kitecorbin3914 I was not laughing at them, I was observing they are on team blue. I live near by, in a team Red area and everyone is going in to help out.
@@Invisbleanonymous That's good, I must have misread that. I am a republican myself, and I have been giving out clean well water and canned food to my friends and family in our rural area. I was super lucky and only lost power for a day and a half. Our well pump is electric, so we had no running water until then. The storm was so mild here that it was like a regular summer rain. The well water is fine. My brother works for Fletcher, and he has been out there cutting trees out of the road and off of power lines. We have all been stressed and frazzled through this. Even with electricity and clean water, it still feels like a 'hurry up and wait' situation. The most important thing is to stay home if you are not an emergency worker, which I have been doing other than to check to see if the stores have opened up yet. Good luck and be safe out there, brother.
*ITS A CHOICE PEOPLE* you either DO something about climate change of you get used to this as normal life...
Climate change is a monetary shakedown.
@@silvursprings Science. Go get some.
Yes because poor Appalachian people absolutely have a say in fvcking climate change. Honestly, instead of sitting behind your keyboard running your mouth about "climate change" why don't YOU do something and volunteer to help these communities in need.
@@piccalillipit9211 Sure raise the taxes. That'll fix everything....right? You're literally a spec of dust floating around in a tiny galaxy and YOU think a billion more specs of dust will influence the outcome of this planet. Your ego has you in a bind.
@@silvursprings No dude - YOU are just looking for an excuse to not make any changes to you overly consumptive life. Dont dress your selfishness up in philosophy - you are just selfish
What happens when nobody cares about you
We are very close to that now I fear. As long is it’s not happening to someone personally they don’t care.
More than 10.000 are dead
Not in the US. the death toll stands at 94 currently.
How do yoy know
This shouldn't have happened. They had to have known that the rain would eventually brake the dams and the people were in danger. Who dropped the ball here, and why? Prayers for those that are affected by this tragedy.
Protected class?
It’s climate change. It’s not just happening here. Go take a look at the devastating floods happening in Nepal as well
The flooding has not broken the dams last I heard. And you sound judgmental for which there is never a good reason. How do judgments bring people together??
Will the people in this area learn from this that climate change is real or will they still elect politicians that want to ban climate change? Warmer Gulf = Stronger Hurricanes.
Not the time or place. Flooding close to this happened in 1916 as well, though new records this time, because it rained a week solid here before the hurricane arrived...
Also Asheville is a very liberal town with a lot of recent transplants from California. Maybe they brought this with them?
What is that even supposed to mean? Are you implying these small communities are directly at fault for climate change? Either way… I’m sorry your parents didn’t raise you better
This was 2 weather systems that merged together. There were 3 weather systems in one area. 2 merged and the 3rd kept it from moving back out to the Atlantic.
Asheville is a very liberal area and most do believe in climate change and vote accordingly. Politics is not the topic at the moment so can the heartless crap. All I’ve seen from the “party of compassion” is hateful nonsense towards conservatives. I don’t care about anyone’s political affiliation in this moment. I care about the people that need help. They are our friends, neighbors, and family and they are people that matter regardless of if I agree with them on anything and my first thought is for their safety not who they voted for.
@@Invisbleanonymousare you really suggesting this!!!! Warmer golf more rain during Hurricane
😂😂😂
No one is coming to save you people, you need to save yourself. It amazes me me that everyone knew good and well spoken that this was coming, but still have a empty gas tank and no water stored, no food, propane. If you try hard enough to be a victim, that is exactly what you will be
Thinking this way is not only inconsiderate to those who are dead, missing, or trapped in inaccessible areas, but it is also dangerous. These people need our support, not blame for the unavoidable situation that thousands of them have been put in.
@@JordanJParsons most made a conscious decision to be victims by not making some simple preparations, you can cry about your hurt feelings or learn a lesson from it, that is your decision
@toddlong8672 In your time of greatest need, may you be blessed to receive the same compassion & assistance you've offered here.
@@tothelighthouse9843 no one is coming to save me either, I live comfortable with that knowledge
@@toddlong8672 Some day you will learn the folly of judging others, but you've got quite a ways to go before you get there!
Good luck to NC with Cooper at the helm. Total buffoon.
Would you rather have Mark Robinson in charge? Why tf is this political?
Liberals beat you easily every day of the week. People like you can't succeed.
Where is president Biden
Biden issued emergency assistance 2 days ago!! Where have you been?
Can anyone say: Cheap Land For Sale! Oh shut up! You were thinking it too!!!
No, not everyone stoops to your level!!
Funderburgh, where the hell they came up with these names..The military can fly into areas cut off, once they can find flat area to land..What taking them so long
It's not that easy for them to fly into strong winds
@rickwalters5066 There isn't any strong winds there right now
Well you should be up there pointing to them where to land, genius.
The hospital in Erwin had over 50 people stranded on the roof and helicopters had to air-lift everyone off the roof. Each helicopter could take a few people and fly them somewhere safe.
@@onetuliptree Exactly! There was no where for the helicopter to land. the hospital was surrounded by water.
Time to address climate change don’t you think? The jet streams are completely off track and this is the result.
There always 'addressing climate change' by monitoring and taxing us and ignoring the big companies and military that cause all the problems
Honey, you are running your brain on emotion. Climates change is a monetary shakedown. Cloud seeding and Geo engineering is a real thing. The air force has been doing it since the 60s. The information is out there. Many government journals written over the years on this. Take a look, it's in a book, reading rainbow. Not everything the TV tell you is reality.
Unplug your computer and cell phone charger and turn your electricity off and use candles , I’m sure that will help . BTW who is the largest contributor of green house gasses on the planet ?, maybe you should GO talk with them.
Get rid of the creepy signers they provide no purpose.
@@2IC-hn1hz - LOL 😃
IF THE BIG GUY GOT 10% FROM THE RED CROSS APPALACHIA WOULD HAVE BETTER ATTENTION
When you BUILD in a flood zone is bad enough but when you build towns in a river bed what do you expect?
How is your judgmental statement that has already been repeated over and over help anyone?? What use is it to judge people where they chose to live??
🥺 HAILEY’s ppl
