As Helene moved through North Carolina, it left devastation in its path. The state has the highest death toll so far from the hurricane turned tropical storm, which unleashed heavy rain on the Southeast.

Hurricane Helene was a historic storm that will be on the minds of those affected for years to come. During the evening of Sept. 26, the storm made landfall along Florida’s Big Bend area as a category 4 with wind speeds of 140 mph.
