Join Us in Supporting the Hurricane Helene Relief Efforts
Thank you for supporting the Hurricane Helene relief efforts. Catholic Charities USA will be coordinating relief efforts all across the impacted communities and will be working directly with the local Diocesan Catholic Charities agencies.
The Associated Press reports:
More than 40 trillion gallons of rain has drenched the southeastern United States this past week as a result of Hurricane Helene and a mundane rainstorm that sloshed before it — an unprecedented amount of water that has baffled experts.
“That’s an astronomical amount of precipitation,” said Ed Clark, head of NOAA’s National Water Center in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. “I have never seen anything so geographically vast and the sheer amount of water that fell from the sky in my 25 years with the weather service.”
