HELP PEOPLE AFFECTED BY HURRICANE HELENE HERE
Countless emergency crews from Florida to Georgia are responding to reports of people being trapped in their homes and vehicles as rivers and streams rapidly rise due to the flooding from relentless rain that has been pounding the region.
Helene made landfall about 10 miles west-southwest of Perry, Florida, at 11:10 p.m. ET Thursday, and impacts have been felt across the Southeast and into portions of the mid-Atlantic as the monster storm pushed farther inland and began to weaken.
While wind does remain a concern, the greatest threat from Helene continues to be the flash flooding as torrential rain falls across the region, sending rivers and streams out of their banks, onto roads and into communities, trapping residents.
The flash flood threat stretches from the Southeast into the mid-Atlantic, where multiple Flash Flood Emergencies were issued early Friday morning, including the first-ever Flash Flood Emergency issued for Atlanta.
