Glad to see "Isaac" and "Joyce" are fish spinners and hopefully no human impact anywhere. Hoping this new storm headed to the gulf is a boring dud. We don't need any more trauma & drama down here Mother Nature!!

North Carolina suffered the highest death toll, at least 42 so far – a grim number that could rise as crews make their way to the hardest hit areas. The most recent fatalities include five deaths reported in Henderson County, along with the death of a sheriff’s deputy in Macon County who was swept away by the storm

Disregard original post

That initial source didnt mention Hurricane Ian in 2022. As of right now the death toll for Ian is higher than Helene.

side note

according to the CDC, the red cross reported 117 deaths related to hurricane Sandy, with the media reporting as many as 131. The cnn post above isnt entirely accurate.
