Hi, someone from Asheville checking in. Absolutely devastating here, much like Erwin up the road.
I’ve never been in a hurricane before this but it was absolutely insane. We’re so far inland, and so typically climate insulated. No one expected nearly this and it quickly overwhelmed everything we have. Just got soke cell back, I’ve heard potentially weeks for power for some and same on water.
The most unrealistic thing about this illustration is that the majority of people are recording in landscape.
😂
These assholes are going to vote for Project 2025, which would eliminate NOAA & NWS. Idiots.
Tennessee and Kentucky are far more purple than conventional thought gives them credit for.
Fr not only do they lose the popular vote… even the red states aren’t all 80/20… there are miserable intelligent Americans everywhere and nobody gives a shit. I’ve lived in blue bubbles my whole life and spent a ton of time in red places with red people (stop, you know what I mean), and there are always normal blue people. And most red people are only a disinformation or two away from being with it. Unfortunately that’s all it takes in a two party system and they game it well. Take away angels and abortion and before the hell cult, most Americans are half decent and not Nazis.
That was the thing about Arizona it took the Democrats realizing it was a purple state and they should vote. That’s why these states seem to flip so suddenly. Then of course it’s a decade or two wait to get a state legislature that’s not gerrymandered to hell and back.
With the abortion issue there’s new organizing going on in a bunch of previously locked down red states.
I live here and I am not voting that way. I am hoping this wakes some of my ignorant neighbors up.
Not climate change sure sucks, don’t it, Republicans. Anyway I live up north so I’m fine, at least as far as hurricanes are concerned.

My parents came from Ohio to visit me in Texas just after Ike came through. I was going to show them around Houston the first couple of days, but we just got out of there. About halfway through their visit, the neighbor called to tell them trees were down and there was no power and it was expected to be out for days. Weather (and IIRC tornadoes) from the remnants caused all kinds of damage.
People have lost their homes. Please keep your political bickering out of this.
Events like this will become more common and widespread due to those politics. But thoughts and prayers right?

Helene was only a category 4 and did this amount of damage. It’s insane.
Yeah man-made climate change ain’t real, we get hurricanes in Tennessee all the time
If we make it ILLEGAL to Mention Helene Storm then we will SOLVE the Problem!
