Heartbreaking photo shows NC grandparents trapped on roof before they were swept away by floodwaters along with grandson



A heartbreaking final photo of North Carolina grandparents waiting to be rescued from the roof of their home while surrounded by fierce floodwaters has emerged following the devastation left by Hurricane Helene.

Jessica Drye Turner — who was hundreds of miles away in Texas — had begged for someone to save her family members after they became stranded on top of their Asheville home and were “watching 18-wheelers and cars floating by” as they waited for help, she wrote on Facebook as the storm ravaged the area Friday.

But help did not arrive in time. Turner later revealed that the roof where her loved ones were sheltering collapsed — and her parents and 7-year-old nephew Micah were washed away and drowned in the flood waters.

A way to help.  100% of $$ goes to emergency relief.


Hurricane Helene Relief

We are helping the victims of Hurricane Helene. American citizens in our nation are going through unimaginable hardships and desperately need help. We are delivering supplies directly where they are needed. We are partnering with Rep. Cory Mills to secure at least two helicopters and deliver baby supplies, personal hygiene products, diapers, paper towels, and non-perishable food to North Carolina. We are working around the clock with our partners to serve North Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, Florida, South Carolina, Appalachia, and others. We cannot do this work without you. Please donate to help.

I think I posted that upthread. The grandparents and the boy were swept away after the roof collapsed, while the boy's mother (daughter of the grandparents) got pinned by a tree and managed to survive - after watching her parents and son die. So overwhelmingly sad.

Don’t worry y’all - Biden regime funded $325 million for *Ukraine’s* energy grid 2 weeks ago
Americans can’t turn on their lights or their kitchen faucets in North Carolina and Tennessee
But Biden made sure Ukrainians can
Insane corruption

2 weeks ago @SecBlinken announced $325 million to repair Ukraine’s energy and electric grid. American cities destroyed by the hurricane are now facing shortages of these parts.

Just want to note that nearly every chopper and plane up in the sky right now to help with storm recovery belong to private citizens. That’s who’s likely going to be there for you in a crisis, not the federal government. Plan accordingly.

Honestly....  Ask any of us who live in Hurricane Alley, what our opinion is of FEMA....  I'd venture it'd break 90/10 in the way you think,

HARRIS: "Disaster aid should be based on equity."


i.e. Kamel-uh just gave the middle finger to the poor whites of rural Appalachian western NC.  Watch the bulk of the bucksgo to Asheville, and into local pol's hands.

Mayorkas on NC Resident Feeling Abandoned: We Warned About Extreme Weather Events Increasing
