@@Tbrew-zd6xb What do you mean? They are humans and that should be enough to feel sorry for their tragedy. Whites as well as black Americans are lovely people. Look, I immigrated to the US (legally) from Afghanistan a year ago. I am a permanent resident and not even a US citizen. But what I have seen from the American people so far is pure love, respect and kindness. Americans, whether whites, blacks or from any other race or ethnicity, are one of the nicest people in the world. So cordial and kind. Interacting with the wonderful American people only increased my love and respect for them. Love you America and your great generous people ❤️❤️❤️.
@@Tbrew-zd6xb I know the history of European colonialism in America and other parts of the world. But those affected by the hurricane should not be associated with the wrong-doings of their ancestors. I know many white Americans who are severely critical of colonialism and slavery that happened in the past. In my opinion, when we see humans who are suffering, we should feel sympathetic towards them without any consideration for their race, color, religion, ethnicity or political affiliation. To your question on the Russian invasion; if you mean the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. I feel that the Afghan people fought bravely to defeat the Soviet forces and their puppet communist government. And it was the resilience of the Afghan people that led to the disintegration of the Soviet Union and as a result, so many countries in eastern Europe and central Asia got their freedom. And of course, US support to the Afghan people in their struggle and resistance to the Soviet occupation at that time cannot be overlooked.
Excellent work. Thank you. My cousin is one of the numbers in today's deaths. His house was taken down in a landslide. You captured that level of chaos and tragedy.
I live here. We watched from our home as trees fell on neighbors houses and flood waters got closer and closer. We lost power. Thats all. We got lucky. 😢
Love the silence in the footage and no commentary. Mountains focused the water into rivers and low laying areas that flooded, Most businesses in a community are in lower areas, no wonder so much damage to the areas.
Good video coverage. We visit this area often, along with 19 E from Johnson City to Elizabethtown TN, Asheville and hiking in the mountains. This is so heartbreaking for the folks who live/ work there
Man, that's horrible. I live in SC and have done many trips up to NC to see all the sights, Chimney Rock, caves, white water rafting, Blue Ridge Parkway, waterfalls, and the mile high bridge and more. Hope everyone up there is safe, and things get back to normal as soon as possible.
So many nostalgic places I went to as a kid are just gone now, I can only imagine how people who lost their family members and houses on top of it are feeling
OMG I am in East TN and I keep hearing about Western NC, but haven't seen this raw footage of this devastation. It's horrifying! I hope people are now somewhere safe!
I'm in NC, but further east than where this happened and I was praying for both NC and TN! Looked like the storm bands were just stopping in Tennessee to drop all their water. It's going to take a long time to fix this mess.
I'm in VA, on the TN and NC lines. Our roads, bridges and lots of homes got destroyed. Nothing as bad as this, but the devastation to infrastructure is widespread.
Boone has no internet now , the news said 9 - 28 - 2024 . They've all swarmed down to North Wilkesboro to escape . I- 40 is closed outside of Asheville on the Tennessee side , and also on the other side of Asheville before you get to the city from the Piedmont side . Thank you all for your prayers and thank God for His mercy for the survivors !
Most of us outside of town are out of lights too. People are in line for gas. We're from the coast so we were prepared but it's a mess and traffic is worse than ever. We beg you all to stay out of High Country right now!!!
@@lisacecil449 God bless you , honey . I'm in Durham with no problems except needing to check our family's home in the mountains . Hope you have food , otherwise the Southsquare area is OK .
I'm in upstate SC and thankfully only had one tree to fall beside my house. Most of my family are in South Georgia with a lot of wind and tree damage, its bad but this...this is just heartbreaking.
Ashville is only an hour drive west of where I live in NC. This is all so surreal to us. The whole state has a lot of rivers. Those of us East are still on watch for flooding still.
Thank you for this, I have a cousin and his wife between Flat rock and Brevard and have not been able to make contact. Just contributed to a local church taking necessary supplies in to families. We must help as we can, this will be a long recovery
Praying for the people all affected by this hurricane. We had a foot of flooding in a building in Florida and that looks like nothing compared to these images.
I'm so sorry, NC. Our SC hearts are completely broken for all of you. This area is like my second home and is almost unrecognizable. Wish I could pluck every person out the water and off the mountain tops. It is a truly helpless feeling seeing these images.
I bought a couple acres about a hour from Asheville and have a small shed house, A bit higher elevation and had about 10 trees fall and about 8 now leaning halfway down no other damage luckily.
We lived 5 years in NC in a nice area on a nice street. The hurricanes were a huge factor for us fleeing, but were fourth on the list of reasons. No one could pay me enough to live there ever again. You have dodged a bullet, figuratively and literally.
With climate change impacting natural disasters across the country (and world), there really isn't a place to go. This is something we have been looking into, and there are some places that are better than others. I would suggest that when doing your research you look at predicted climate future rather than past performance. Good luck!
This is just devastating for Western North Carolina. We live in the southeastern part of the state where the tornadoes were forecasted to be especially numerous. However, thank the Lord, we had no tornadoes, no flooding, and we didn't even lose power. Praying for these folks.
@@soulaesthete8563 Most people here don't know how to act in this weather. We live here but my husband is from VA Beach and I'm from Eastern NC. We were prepared but people panicked and many where i live are young students. That made it so much worse.
We have a family farm there called Harrell Hill Farm. It’s just outside the town area of Bakersville and from what we’ve seen there, it will take at least a year to recover.
Busick, NC got 30.78 inches of rain. I can't even wrap my head around how it would be to see that amount of rain in a day little on the impossiblity of even if you knew trying to prepare for that amount of rain. I haven't heard any news out of that area. I hope and pray people survived.
We were right at the crux of the damage in Alexander Co. We pumped out 9300 gallons of water from our crawlspace last night, with the help of friends who had extra sump pumps. NO INTERNET unless your directly in town near the main and only cell tower. Power was restored Friday evening around 10,in half the town, after 27 hours or so without it. HOWEVER,Having lived in Watauga, Jackson Co on mountain sides,and having worked in Haywood,Swain and Macon Co, I am beyond devastated. I used to live near Caney Fork, in East LaPorte,below Cullowhee and also in Balsam,NC as well as Meat Camp. I EVEN lived in Brevard for a moment too. My soul has been apart of the mountains since I was a kid, living close to Boone and coming from a ASU family. 😢 I KNOW, those areas I used to stay are probably washed away or washed out totally. I always lived next to the Tuckaseegee River and watched it flood many times in mild rain storms. The moment I can drive the truck up there to help, with shovels, buckets ect, we will be there. We live 40 minutes from Blowing Rock. I am just sending so much love and hope to my Applachian communties. ❤
My Elderly parents live on Loch Haven Road in Swannanoa I have not been able to get ahold of them if anyone can tell me anything about that side of town I will greatly appreciate it.
You might want to share that information with the Police in Wilson, NC... that appears to be the closest town that would have a police dept. At least ask if they have any information regarding shelters, and how to locate someone who might be in one. I noticed on google maps that there's I-40 just north of there, with a creek in between I-40 and the access road to your parent's street. It's likely it flooded...
@@harleygould7255 im from both Eastern and Western NC. Wilson is about 4 hours East of Buncombe County which is where Swannanoa is located. I do know that the Swannanoa River flooded badly and that area was hit hard. I'd call Buncombe County Sheriff and ask for a wellness check. I'm 2 hours north of Swannanoa and they're helicoptering in National Guard and FEMA. Many people have gone to shelters in the area.
This is my old stomping grounds. I lived in Kingsport Tn. For 8 years. Had land in Asheville. Was going to build a home one day. Lost both places in 2008 housing debacle! Obama’s reign! This is some of the most beautiful country in this nation! I’m so saddened to see it like this! Praying for all of the people and wildlife. Homesteaders.

Anyone from candler NC? If so how are things over there? I live in Fletcher and evacuated the area today. I have been checking on my co workers. They are all fine but I cannot get ahold of one of them who lives in Candler. His house is is across a creek. I’m worried about him since all the creeks became rivers within hours.
I hate giving this a thumbs up, because it's so heart breaking and horrifying, but thank you for the compilation Thoughts and prayers to everyone affected.
This is why strong government is needed. Among other reasons, there is a very very heavy reliance on government to come in and take care of these massive areas of destruction. This is why the rich who have millions and billions and trillions of dollars need to pay a fair share of taxes. Those tax dollars are needed throughout the United States for infrastructure for schools for hospitals, for roads, etc….
amazing video footage, I am sadden to see so much damage caused by this hurricane, so much clean up and reconstruction work!! I own property and rebuilt my community in Waimea, Kauai Hawaii where I survived and went through Hurricane Ewa and Hurricane Iniki and I know that it took atleast 4 years to just planning before we started to rebuild.
I'm in Biloxi went thru everything since Camille. I thought Katrina was rough. At least I know what to expect, these poor folks. My heart breaks for them. 🙏✝️🙏
My Wife has friends in flat rock in North Carolina can anyone Tell me if that part is OK she’s been trying to reach out to her friend, but no cell service at all. Any kind of update would be greatly appreciated.
Check with the Henderson County Sheriff's Dept. Have their Names, address, any pertinent information handy to give them. Perhaps they're in a shelter, somewhere...
@@harleygould7255 I’ve tried calling the police station and the fire department out there so has My Wife police station line is down and so is the fire department thank you for all the information I really appreciate it. We’ll keep trying.

I own property and rebuilt my community in Waimea, Kauai Hawaii where I survived and went through Hurricane Ewa and Hurricane Iniki and I know that it took atleast 4 years to just planning before we started to rebuild.
I was going to move to Asheville in 2016. Decided to move to WA State instead.
I'm in Biloxi went thru everything since Camille. I thought Katrina was rough. At least I know what to expect, these poor folks. My heart breaks for them. 🙏✝️🙏
thanks for sharing this
My Wife has friends in flat rock in North Carolina can anyone Tell me if that part is OK she’s been trying to reach out to her friend, but no cell service at all. Any kind of update would be greatly appreciated.
@@ExtraordinaryDetail What county is that in?
@@maevependragon Henderson county
Check with the Henderson County Sheriff's Dept. Have their Names, address, any pertinent information handy to give them. Perhaps they're in a shelter, somewhere...
@@harleygould7255 I’ve tried calling the police station and the fire department out there so has My Wife police station line is down and so is the fire department thank you for all the information I really appreciate it. We’ll keep trying.
@@ExtraordinaryDetail My friend Lila is from Henderson County. She said parts were bad and parts weren't as affected. Cell service is out in so many places atm. I agree with calling the Sheriff. There are a lot of people being flown in and Guards coming in to help in situations like yours. See if they can spare a wellness check on your people. 🖤
WITHOUT GOD ALL WILL PERISH.🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾😢😢. FOCUS ON HIM AND PRAY THERE IS NO OTHER OTHER HELP IS NEEDED.
