Tropical Weather Latest: US Southeast struggles to recover in Hurricane Helene's aftermath

Massive rains brought by Hurricane Helene have left many people stranded or homeless as the cleanup begins from the monster tempest that killed at least 84 people.

Helene has caused billions of dollars in destruction across a wide swath of the U.S. Southeast. Several million customers were without power Sunday. Some face a continued threat of floods.

Floodwaters that led to blocked roads and downed power lines isolated North Carolina's hard-hit city of Asheville.

Helene blew ashore in Florida’s Big Bend region as a Category 4 hurricane late Thursday and then quickly moved through Georgia, the Carolinas and Tennessee, uprooting trees, splintering homes and sending creeks and rivers over their banks and straining dams.
