Helene made landfall on Sept. 26, in Florida, as a category 4 hurricane. The storm caused historical-level floodings in western North Carolina and widespread power outages affecting over 1.2 million people in South Carolina, and over 3 million across Tennessee, Florida, Georgia, and the Carolinas. The South Carolina National Guard continues to respond to disaster relief requests for assistance from federal, local, and state agencies.
