- North Carolina officials pledged to get more water and other supplies to flood-stricken areas by Monday after Hurricane Helene left a trail of destruction across the U.S. Southeast and the death toll from the storm rose to nearly 100.
At least 91 people across several states were killed. A North Carolina county that includes the mountain city of Asheville reported 30 people killed.
Gov. Roy Cooper predicted the toll would rise as rescuers and other emergency workers reached areas isolated by collapsed roads, failing infrastructure and widespread flooding.
Supplies were being airlifted to the region around the isolated city of Asheville. Buncombe County Manager Avril Pinder pledged that she would have food and water to the city by Monday.
“We hear you. We need food and we need water,” Pinder said on a Sunday call with reporters. “My staff has been making every request possible to the state for support and we’ve been working with every single organization that has reached out. What I promise you is that we are very close.” #Helene #Weather #Hurricane

I f you guys would take the time to drive 5 or 10 minutes out of Boone you would devastation that would rival Katrina but all we hear is Asheville and Boone - homes are completely gone! Death toll going to dramatically rise
If i was president which would never happen i would use whatever means it took to get these people help starting 4 days ago but our prez is a wet noodle
I thought that dude was a cardboard cutout until he moved😂.
Could "Cloud Seeding" be the cause for this? look at the Middle East in Dubai, they showed videos of their cloud seeding process just right before the massage flood
No, it's not the cause of this.
No. Stop with the tin foil babble. God has warned many times through His modern day prophets, that the shakings will intensify. He's gonna get ppl's attention. He's gonna wake ppl up in addition to destroying our enemies' plans against us.
So my advice is, get right with God and hold on tight. This is going to get rougher before it gets better.
How about MARION NC!
Ughhhhhh
Sad historical Biblical flood event. God is angry. 💔
Climate change has nothing to do with God.
It has to do with human actions. Or inactions.
Blasphamy to call this a Biblical event.
The topic is important.5 the reporting is shotty
Any word from Biden? Of course not
Pay attention. He's on the way.
@@user-jeffjackin a couple of weeks And forget about crackle Kamala
Yeah, I'm not pro Biden or Trump, but they literally reported he approved FEMA and is planning a trip that won't disrupt rescue workers.
@@user-jeffjack and I'm sure there will be as much relief as was given to Hawaii. As long as Ukraine & Israel get their money it's ok though, right?
He signed the emergency declaration so woke socialistic federal money is available. The people who know what to do are doing what they need to do…
If you think you can do better, then you can deliver water, food, medicines, etc to rural communities.
Biden is smart and knows not to come soon since police and fire fighters need to be looking for victims and helping community, not standing around protecting the president.
Hey MAGA, you don't like the federal government. Fix your own roads and bridges.

A pallet of paper towels is heading y’all’s way thx to Trump.. Remember just like Puerto Rico 🇵🇷😇 what a great guy that Donald 😬
TDS?? Where is crackle Kamala?
We're gonna need more paper towels.
🤪👻💩🥱☠️🖕🏼
Praying for you guys. Trump 24🎉🎉❤
He tried to shut down the government right before the hurricane. And he's trying to get rid of FEMA. Be real or perish. Darwin rules.
All Trump would do it throw paper towels at the people and then abandon them.
@@Matt-fl8uy at least that would be more then the Biden- HARRIS would do🤬 look into the Palisitine train derailment, Hawaii fires and the bridge collapse.
@@Matt-fl8uy brain damage?
