Hurricane Florence is finally passing, and North Carolina residents are finally able to return whatever is left of their homes.
Hurricane Florence pounded the state with high winds and extremely heavy rains for several days. Rain started falling before the storm’s official landfall on Sept. 14, and was still falling on Tuesday, Sept. 18. The National Weather Service reported that Florence dumped more than eight trillion gallons of water on the state—some three feet of rain on parts of the state, Reuters reported.
