Collapse ▲The results of Hurricane Helene will be felt in the region for many years to come. Historic flooding, landslides and debris flow impacted areas adjacent to creeks, rivers and drainage areas. Downed trees, at all elevations, contributed to widespread road blockages, power outages and more.
The NC Forest Damage Appraisal, following the September 27 event, indicates that an estimated 822,00 acres of timberland received some level of damage, with a large proportion of this being hardwood sawtimber.
Landowners heavily impacted by this event and other concerned individuals are invited to attend a discussion held by agencies, non-profits, and others with knowledge and resources to help guide landowners through this process.
