Hurricane Helene Kills At Least 116 People across US | BBC News

Sep 30, 2024 | More than 116 people have died after high winds and torrential winds caused by Hurricane Helene. Helene - which made landfall in Florida on Thursday - began as a category four hurricane and became the most powerful on record to hit Florida's Big Bend before moving north into Georgia, the Carolinas and Tennessee. It was later downgraded to a tropical storm.

Vice-President Kamala Harris is due to visit affected areas, the White House said, with Donald Trump due in Georgia later to do the same.
