    This speaks to the incredible amount of work required to recover from this storm.

    The Swannanoa river was only one of many “ corporates” of this devastation. It’s so wide spread and the main stream media just covers the Asheville and surrounding areas. The cane river the toe river the green the nolichucky the French broad and so many more done this same damage if not worse.

    Incredible Tiny Homes, Newport, TN is building 50 Tiny Homes by Christmas in conjunction with Corporate Lowe's NC and their donated building supplies for Western NC. Tiny Homes are being built to NC code and will have 4 bunk beds, a small kitchen and bathroom and mush needed HEAT.

      Amish Tiny homes did the same but they were not allowed because they were not “built to code”

    Thank you Steve and all the crew there at FOX Weather, you have truly stepped up and continue to step up and get there and show us what exactly is still going on down there in WNC.
    KUDOS To you all 👍❤️🙏

    Thanks, Steve, for the update. I am a disabled senior living in Central NC, so it brought tears of joy to my eyes, seeing that River so low & calm now, comparatively speaking. It’s obvious a lot of good people have helped & I am grateful, although I am pretty housebound so count on honest News crews for feedback. Staying constant in prayer for all & sincerely appreciate your reports. GBU all. Goodnight :)

    Loggers should go there and use those trees and people with sawmills the government could pay them and then in return use the lumber to rebuild or make money for the states,it would be a shame those big beautiful trees go to waste.

      I'm curious about how they are accounting for the vehicles being dragged out of the river, there must be hundreds, maybe thousands. All with the Insurance companies or the Dept. of Motor Vehicles wanting to know their wherabouts?

    Families in North Carolina 🇺🇸 continue to recover in the aftermath of hurricane Helene, with several nonprofit organizations stepping in to help communities still very much in need as Christmas approaches Fox Weather meteorologist Steve bender was in Asheville, North Carolina, on Sunday where he spoke with a homeowner who had minutes to escape the catastrophic flooding. 🙏 🛟

    Someone asked where the military is now! From what I have read online, Army and National Guard troops began pulling out around Oct. 22 and a statement of thanks to the troops from Brig. Gen. Morrison, commander of Joint Task Force North Carolina, was posted on X on November 25. They are no longer here, but have returned to their duty stations. I wish someone would wake up and realize that this recovery is not the same as the recovery from a coastal hurricane strike. (I'm a beach person!) The disaster in Western North Carolina and the surrounding area, is probably 1000 times worse....or more!

    They will remove the vehicles. It takes time and that lady host should not have said it will become part of the landscape. People lost everything and insurance companies are still making their rounds. That lady has no compassion.

      Alice, I agree that reporters should think before speaking, and fortunately some do :) You are so right that many good people are working hard & this river has calmed to show their progress. I just smiled at her comment, thinking she must be late to the dance lol. Seriously though, I appreciate everyone that has shown up to help. That lady obviously just took a sneak peek to have something to say on air. Hopefully her moment of glory doesn’t backfire TOO hard on her at work. I think we are supposed to be merciful, even under pressure. :)
