More than a month after Helene, recovery efforts continue in western North Carolina. This week, our guests are WCNC Charlotte's Julia Kauffman and Evan Fisher.Julia reported from Chimney Rock and shares with us what she saw for hard-hit communities like Chimney Rock, Lake Lure and Bat Cave. Most of the town was damaged and the road remains mostly closed to outside visitors. Evan shares his experience in Asheville where recovery from Helene continues. He has started a new website, https://forwnc.org/, to document individual storm reports and impacts on communities across western North Carolina.Evan also shares a heartfelt Helene survivor storm documented by @StormChaserAaronRigsby.
