But they are possible.My theory about this storm is that it is indeed going anthropomorphic to "troll" us by pretending to go out to sea, but I think it might get caught on that 75 degree dewpoint coming off the Carolinas, like a stationary front and do a long run of "training" of storms over the area like <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/HurricaneHelene" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#HurricaneHelene</a> did. I think the size of the storm -- especially if it splts -- is being underestimated by forecasters calling it a fish storm. I think it will slow down and create its own weather pattern, and get stuck.

Thus far, our damaged corner of the house is being repaired to a better-than-original condition.So many homes in our area are still damaged and awaiting repairs.

Then they created another one.Debris removal after Hurricane Helene did more damage to the environment than the storm itself in some parts of the state, scientists claim.The small section of forest before me looked as though it was clear-cut. The ground was flat and treeless, covered in a thin layer of jumbled sticks and leaves.This region, a wetland formed by beavers near the South Carolina border, was flooded last September by Hurricane Helene. But it wasn’t the storm that razed the forest. It was the machines that came after. They were part of a hurricane cleanup effort, bankrolled by the federal government, that many environmental experts believe went very, very wrong.Helene hit North Carolina in late September last year, dumping historic amounts of rain that damaged thousands of homes, killed more than 100 people, and littered rivers with debris including fallen trees, building fragments, and cars. In the months since, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has sponsored an enormous cleanup effort in western North Carolina. It focused, among other things, on clearing debris from waterways for public safety. Storm debris left in rivers and streams can create jams that make them more likely to flood in the future.In some parts of the state, however, cleanup crews contracted by the federal government removed much more than just dangerous debris. According to several state biologists, environmental experts, and my own observations from a recent trip to the area, contractors in some regions cleared live trees still rooted in the ground, logs that were in place well before the storm, and other natural features of the habitat that may not have posed a risk to public safety."<a href="https://www.vox.com/down-to-earth/420513/flooding-debris-removal-hurricane-helene-wildlife" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.vox.com/down-to-earth/420513/flooding-debris-removal-hurricane-helene-wildlife</a>

Firestorm BooksOne week from today, we'll be hosting author Michael Holcombe for a presentation on his new book, "The Story of Asheville's Water"—the first history of our municipal water, from the 1797 incorporation of the city to post-Helene recovery.Michael was Asheville's water resources director throughout much of the 1990s and set out to write "The Story of Asheville's Water" after the infamous municipal outage of December 2022. His work uncovers the remarkable degree to which Asheville is a city built on water, from its early beginnings to its promised future as a "climate haven."This 45 minute presentation will be followed by an audience Q&A and book signing.
