The US homeland security adviser, Liz Sherwood-Randall, said on Monday that there could be as many as 600 deaths, though the figure has not yet been confirmed.
More than 1 million Americans were still without power in the Carolinas and Georgia as of Monday morning.
Helene made landfall last Thursday night in Florida’s Big Bend region as a category 4 hurricane. Even though it weakened to a tropical storm before moving through Georgia, the Carolinas and Tennessee, the storm’s winds, rainfall, storm surge and flooding destroyed entire communities in its path.
On Sunday, North Carolina’s department of public safety said that supplies such as food, water and other needs were arriving in Asheville, a city in Buncombe county that has seen widespread destruction. The state’s national guard was airlifting supplies into counties across western North Carolina, too, officials said.
“This is an unprecedented tragedy that requires an unprecedented response,” Roy Cooper, North Carolina’s governor, said.
Federal Emergency Management Agency officials said Monday that hundreds of roads had been closed across western North Carolina and that shelters were housing more than 1,000 people.

More impressive is the noise cancelling in the pricier model. Most noise-cancelling systems require a good seal with your ear to be effective, and while they cannot match Bose or the AirPods Pro, the AirPods 4 manage to pull it off with the open fit far better than expected.

Food companies should have to report how much they

Food companies should have to report how much they throw away as a first step towards reducing the vast amounts of edible food squandered in the UK, a group of prominent businesses have said.
About a third of the food produced globally every year is binned, much of it before it reaches the consumer at a cost of almost £22bn annually to the UK economy.
There is also a heavy environmental toll: food waste globally contributes up to a 10th of greenhouse gases.
More than 30 food businesses, including supermarkets and food producers, have written to the environment secretary, Steve Reed, calling for mandatory reporting of wasted food.
