These stories need to be told. So many say it’s not this bad. They don’t understand because they aren’t watching social media and national news isn’t covering it. Thank you.
Smelling death in western NC is BS. I spent the entire weekend there (Wilkes county native assisting Yancey and Buncombe counties). I found my sister dead in the bathroom when I was 8. When I was 17 I helped my parents landlord clean up the remains of a drug addict that overdosed and rotted in his house for 3 weeks. I know the smell of death. It ain’t there. It’s river stank and city slickers don’t know the smell.
There are no different breeds in a disaster....everyone looks exactly the same when rescuing someone else, rebuilding their home or business, or delivering supplies. Many of the National Guard, volunteer firemen/women, and others could pay someone to take their place, but they never do. In my Southern family, a "good old boy" is someone who does the right thing when given a choice.
You are so right ! I just can’t wrap my brain around all of the destruction. I’m 76 with major health issues, but if possible I’d be there doing what I could. My first thought of cleanup was a chainsaw & big bonfire. Or wherever else I was needed. Thank God for good people & community & far away for their help. 🙏🙏💔💔👵🏻❣️
That engagement story was absolutely beautiful. The fact they donated the food truck to people was absolutely amazing. Thank you for being good humans.
Im so heartbroken to watch all this devastation. Its so nice to see americans come together to help..neighbor to neighbor. God will protect and bless all involved.
Thank you all pilots and first responders who helped in packing these supplies. Thank you all for answering God's calling and rescuing these precious souls ❤️ ❤❤
Thank God that everyone is helping each other, because I don't think they can expect much from the government or the big companies, they are more focused on making money from the need and the Human misery is not about helping. Solidarity is not about giving what you have left over, it is about sharing what you have, including love and empathy for others. God bless us and protect us all. From Montreal Quebec Canada
I really liked the way you reported, covering each area hit, including great aerial photo coverage and having different news staff covering each area. Thank you!
I live in marion nc not Ashville where most coverage had been thank you so very much to every single person that has come out to help us ALL here in western NC, TN along with ALL others impacted by this catastrophic storm and the aftermath of damage!!!! God Bless you All❤
And Bermuda is in the path of Hurricane Milton.. GOD CONTINUE TO BLESS THIS COUPLE. And all those in this mobile home park~ western NC is in our prayers.
OMG! I'm shedding tears of joy, then tears of sorrow, the losses are heartbreaking but the spirit of all the courageous and brave is overwhelming, God Bless them each one, they make me proud to be an American as well as, a Southerner! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Sending love and prayers to all those affected by this storm. We overcame and are healing from our 🔥 fires here. God will never leave you nor forsake you. Find strength in Christ. Aloha from Hawaii. God bless 🙏🏼✊🏼🌺💪🏼♥️
God bless you all. I am 66 and I wish I can help! Up here in Chicago. Watching everything on Utube, So sorry that so many people are suffering. My prayers are with you all. The people in this area and those helping . God give you health and strength. Have faith and believe in the Lord ..🌹😇🙏❤️🔥
Wow! The devastation is mind blowing. The people of this area are very resilient and it’s good to see most of them thank God for their survival. I doubt it would be this way where I live in the U.K.
This is beyond sad. I keep welling up when I see different stories being spoke about you guys are heroes to pull together and start again. Real sorry for your loss.
Tim ....So very grateful, humbled and proud of you plus "Save Our Allies" brothers and sisters. !!! Your video brought me to tears!!!😢Thank you from the bottom of my heart!! ❤So glad to hear the 82nd arrived. Impressive men and women!!! Had the privilege of meeting General Donnelly!! As the proud daughter of an American soldier MSgt (now deceased) & WW2 Veteran whose last station was Ft. Bragg N.C. I TOTALLY APPROVE this message!!! ❤ 🙏 "Well Done Good and Faithful Servant" :) comes to mind for you and all the brave volunteers.
My heart is with all these people in the affected areas! May God help and bless you all and may you have the strength and courage to rebuild your lives. and may you receive all the help you need to do so, in whatever way it comes! And for the many who won't have that chance, Rest in Peace! 💓💕
Thank God all the wonderful, caring , gentlemen are not gone. Just watching them roll up their sleeves and take flight to help the victims made me cry for joy.😊 No maga in sight thats for sure. Lord please keep all safe and sound and send rainbows for a while. God Bless ya'll !!!!!!!!!! From Florida !!!! We're still kicking & sending life, light and love !!!!!!!!
I hope they can bury the power lines during the rebuild. Thank you to these great guys with trucks & the proper equipment for moving debris & fixing the roads. Thank you to all the pilots who are helping. Prayers for people still stuck
God bless you for all the rescues you're doing for bringing all of the food medical supplies pet food and anything else they need in you all are heroes. 🙏🇺🇸
I am watching your video from Bulgaria - the city of Plovdiv. I just don't have the words to express my own horror at what I saw... May God have mercy on all the good people who live in Florida!!! Our Father, who art in heaven, have mercy!!! My God, have mercy on your children!!!
Finally bought a freezer, put my summer produce away in it... I had trepidation but it's so much easier than canning ( getting old😬). One of the worst things: hauling all that food and work spent Off to the Dump. I will be canning from now on. It'll have to take my whole home to get to it then. Ggrrrr From Greenwood s.c, hope all can hang in there. 🕊🖖
My sister and her husband donated their RV for a Family to live in when a bad storm hit Florida years ago. IM SURPRISED that others aren't donating their older Rvs so some of these people don't have at least a roof over their heads espwith Winter soon upon us. PLUS, They need to clear-out areas and get Some type of camp sites for these people where a commonwealth is with easy access for the People donating food, supplies, etc...little communities!
I'm sorry this happened.... So sad for you survivors. I lost everything in a house fire! It's devastating, you can't see yourself EVER getting over it BUT, you do!! And one of the things that i experienced is, just what's REALLY IMPORTANT in life!!! You can't take any of "It" with you!! The lives of your loved ones and still being able to wrap your arms around them, if all that matters at this point! Good speed at cleaning this up and you getting your lives back!! It might look different than what it was but, you're alive and life will continue ❤❤❤❤
When Iost my home, no insurance ,no money to build back, My three children wrapped their arms around me and said, mommy I love you. ( I was so glad they had been taught about Jesus ) We found comfort in knowing our lives wasn't lost and because Jesus lives we could face tomorrow. Years ago but how this brings back memories

National News has been covering the Hurricane from the beginning; PBS, MSNBC, and CNN teams were on the spot, along with government agencies.
It’s actually taken me a lot of searching to find the real stories
Praying for the mental and physical recovery of north carolina
Good prayer.. As well as all areas hit, TN, VA, GA, AL, FL & West Coast - FL again! Cat.5 😔
Yes and Amen😢😂😊❤

The wedding couple that fed everyone their wedding day food... AMAZING!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤
They will be blessed for all they did!

Yes!!! They seem like awesome humans and great couple. I wish them many blessings and lots of love❤
There are still some good folks in this troubling world..! .God bless their hearts dear lord..!!! Amen
Those good old boys are a different breed! All of the people there are real hero’s. They mobilized and got to work!
Amen!!!!
Being at Ground Zero they knew eactly what help was needed and where.

So do many outsiders who know what is required and how to do it best. It is always good to have everyone working together.
Yes real men❤️
Thanks for reporting the truth
That's for sure.
Iam a76year old widow God has been watching over me after the hurricane
God bless you. Do you have everything you need?
Prayers for you from Minnesota ❤
Do you need anything? God bless you 🥺❤️🙏🏼
Wish you luck
Stay safe
Thank you for telling their stories we’re not getting any updates from the federal government and not even press conferences
The only news is on RUclips it's ridiculous😢🙏🙏
Where is our president and our government unbelievable it's like third world
Speaks volumes with them not reporting this.
Why would you give updates on something you planned
We had a similar situation in Ahrtal, Germany a couple of years ago. The authorities and news failed as well. The help from strangers was overwelhming
I like that this coverage leaves some footage silent to speak for itself. Words fail anyway. God comfort and embrace all of those effected.
Often what is said is inaccurate.
These residents are mentally STRONG.. their "can do" attitude is impressive!!!!!
Built in pioneer spirit.
You are so right ! I just can’t wrap my brain around all of the destruction.
I’m 76 with major health issues, but if possible I’d be there doing what I could.

Proud to be a american. Greatest country in the world !!

Horses & mules seem to be a great way to connect with people living on distant areas in the mountains. God bless y'all.
thanks for showing what the mainstream media won't
The mainstream media is doing a good job...just not as personal as local stations and blogs. They have a different purpose.
@@sarahhearn-vonfoerster7401 omg really
