seeing that house move that fast in the floodwater and just sink was crazy
Asheville, NC, other parts of Western NC and TN got hit hard by Hurricane Helene. Pretty much all of the roads are blocked or destroyed.

seeing that house move that fast in the floodwater and just sink was crazy
The standard home generator is pretty crappy. I doubt it can charge an EV. But I've seen some sick setups of people that disconnected from the grid. But it probably costs thousands of dollars to do something like that.
I know several people with nothing but EV cars. No gas powered cars at all. But I just can't pull the trigger and give up my ICE vehicles.
Why are you quoting some random Indian?
What exactly is surprising? This hurricane was making a beeline toward Atlanta and that area.
It doesn't even have to be a hurricane, some of these storms are dumping so much water inland that just this year places like Vermont had catastrophic flooding.
It’s labeled a once a 1000 year flood event for a reason.
NOBODY is choosing where to live and their preparation for disaster based on once in a 1000 year events. Statistically the last time something like this happened there was 400 years BEFORE Columbus showed up. None of the infrastructure there was built to handle this.
This ain’t like living in Tampa or Pensacola.

I’m in Jax and somehow the storm skipped us. We got some rain. A little winds. Some people lost power for a day. That was it. I assumed it was over
Had no idea people up north got hammered
Got friends in Augusta and they got 15 grand in property damage and was told power will not be back until middle of October

I'm surprised at the amount of trees that fell in South and East Charlotte. The ones on major streets have been cut and put on the sidewalk but some smaller streets are still blocked. I've been pressing my luck not getting some of these large limbs hanging near my house cut back. Sad what happened in Asheville and Boone I try to do some hiking at Grandfather Mountain and visit the Biltmore at least every other year.
It is, from the dope brewries, the outdoor scenery, the dope people and the other attractions this is sad.

I would never personally build a home...
1. Directly on the coast. Go inland a bit.
2. On a known floodplain unless on seeious stilts.
3. In a river valley in the mountains. Get up that hill - channeled water is seriously destructive.
4. In California and New York, unless the Democrats leave
5. On top of a fault line
6. Near an active volcano.
These rules have served me well in my 30+ moves in my life.

All these communities in ETN/WNC are situated along rivers and major creeks. It is just a matter of topographical luck if they didn't flood or get hit with landslides. And even then, they can be stranded.

In the wake of Hurricane Helene, we have witnessed both the fury of nature and the strength of our national spirit. This storm, one of historic proportions, has left in its path a need for unity, swift action, and compassionate response.
It is in times like these that the true character of our nation is revealed, not through the actions of one individual or office, but through the collective heart of our people. We've seen countless acts of bravery, from first responders to ordinary citizens reaching out to help their neighbors, showcasing the resilience and generosity that define us.
However, amidst this backdrop of community effort, there have arisen concerning reports of officials who, rather than facilitating aid, have threatened repercussions against those volunteering their efforts to assist in recovery. Let me be clear: such actions not only hinder relief efforts but are fundamentally at odds with the principles of freedom and community service that we hold dear.
The American People stands firmly against any form of intimidation or bureaucratic overreach that would punish goodwill. You are here to serve, to support, and to rebuild, not to obstruct the very citizens who embody the spirit of American solidarity.
Therefore, I call upon all officials, at every level of government, to remove any barriers to volunteer aid. Let us not forget that in crisis, our duty is to enable the helpers, not to hinder them with threats or red tape.
To the citizens affected by Hurricane Helene:
- Your Government's Role: They are there to coordinate, to aid, and to ensure that your path to recovery is as smooth as possible. Federal, state, and local agencies are mobilized to provide support, from FEMA's ongoing assessments to the deployment of resources like Starlink for communication, ensuring no one feels abandoned in this time of need.
- Community Action: Your acts of kindness, your willingness to help, whether through providing shelter, food, or simply a helping hand, are the backbone of our recovery. Let no threats deter you. Your efforts are not just appreciated; they are essential.
- A Call for Unity: Let us use this moment to reinforce our bonds. Recovery is not just about rebuilding structures but about strengthening our community fabric.
To those in power contemplating or executing threats against volunteers:
- Reconsider Your Actions: This is a time for leniency, for understanding, for encouraging every act of help. Threatening citizens who step up in crisis is a disservice to the office you hold and the people you serve.
As we move forward, let us do so with a renewed commitment to each other. Our focus must be on healing, rebuilding, and ensuring that such disasters bring out the best in us, not the worst. Together, we will overcome the challenges posed by Hurricane Helene, not as representatives of any title or office, but as Americans united in purpose and compassion.
Thank you, and may we continue to support one another with the dignity and respect every citizen deserves in these trying times.
