This is the latest on Hurricane Helene and its impacts across the southeast. Heavy rain will cause flooding as well. The storm is expected to strengthen on Thursday before making landfall. Storm surges will impact the coast with severe weather, impacting areas far inland and far away from the center of circulation.

Helene will cause big problems along the coast and well inland with damaging winds, tornadoes, flooding rains, and even landslides in the steeper terrain of the southern Appalachians.
