What fell from Hurricane Helene was historic in the state of North Carolina. The amount of rain was put into perspective of enough to fill Lake Mead. Dr. Kathie Dello doesn’t usually do comparisons like that, but does plenty of figuring on what happened in the weather and climate each day in her job as the state climatologist of North Carolina. Some of the biggest rainfall amounts were in the 20 to 30 inch range over a three day period that will likely change the state for the next three decades or more. We get into 100, 500 and 1,000 floods, the closing of I-40 for a year and how -- if at all – certain things should be rebuilt.
