Body of last Hurricane Helene victim in Tennessee found 2 years later

The remains of the final missing victim in Tennessee from Hurricane Helene have been located, two years after the storm laid waste to Appalachian mountain communities with catastrophic floods. Nancy Tucker, 76, vanished along with her husband, Jimmy Tucker, when rising floodwaters from the Nolichucky River carried away their residence in rural Washington County, located in the northeastern corner of Tennessee, on Sept. 27, 2024. While his body was retrieved within days, hers was not found until Saturday, according to Susan Saylor, a spokesperson for the Washington County Sheriff’s Department. The couple's son also lived at the home, but was at work when the flooding hit, Saylor said. Helene claimed more than 250 lives and generated nearly $80 billion in damage stretching from Florida to the Carolinas. Across the mountain border between North Carolina and Tennessee, rainfall reaching up to 30 inches (76 centimeters) turned gentle streams into rushing torrents that moved boulders, trees, vehicles, and houses, breaking flood records that had stood for a century. Many victims were carried away in the deluge.

Severe storm does heavy damage around town

A severe thunderstorm appeared in Hawkins County Saturday morning, with accompanying high winds doing heavy damage in the Rogersville, Guntown, and Persia communities. According to reports from the Hawkins County Emergency Management Agency (EMA), the storm caused significant damage across the impacted area. Two commercial structures and one residential structure were destroyed, and nine additional residential structures sustained damage. A large number of trees and power lines were also brought down throughout the area. The storm lasted only about 15 minutes, but was of such intensity that roads were washed out and many residents had to retrieve trash cans and patio furniture that had been scattered into yards and in the streets. Reportedly, nearly 500 residents of the area still were without power early that evening. Three people were reported to have sustained non-life-threatening injuries. The EMA reported that all blocked roads had been cleared by shortly after noon Saturday. In Rogersville, town employees and even elected officials went all-hands-on-deck to assist. Mayor John Metz joined Hawkins County Mayor David Linkous, in his fifth day on the job, at the EMA command center. Inside the town, Metz said that everyone who could help “just came in,” and “it was impressive,
