When Hurricane Helene slammed into Florida with 140-mph winds, the impacts on the ground were deadly, and that power reverberated up into Earth’s atmosphere, creating ripples seen by a NASA instrument more than 55 miles above.

After Hurricane Helene, Taylor Schenker found herself with about 200 family photos that didn't belong to her. Now, she's hoping to reunite them with the people they belong to.

Just days after their home washed away, the Mosses returned to the site to search for their photos of son Tommy James Moss, who died in his youth from a genetic disorder. The family spent 10 days sifting through the muddy debris and came up with only a few items like a figurine from the film The Lion King.

Phil Miles, 76, a regular Muni golfer who before Helene played weekly, was back at the course for the first time Nov. 7. He was out of town when the storm reached WNC, and said even from afar, watching the devastation was “heartbreaking.”

The highway has been shut down since Hurricane Helene's floodwaters swept away extensive sections along the Pigeon River.

Officials say a driver has died after going around a barricade on a hurricane-damaged North Carolina highway that became a symbol of Helene’s destruction
