Hurricane Helene made landfall with 140-mph winds, sweeping through the southeast and leaving a path of catastrophic devastation. The storm hit Florida late on Thursday, Sept. 26, as a Category 4 hurricane. It then tore through Georgia and the mountains and foothills of the Carolinas, toppling trees and causing severe flash flooding. The damage is historic. More than 215 people have died, with many still missing.
