SEVEN DAY FORECAST IN JUST A LITTLE BIT. LINDSEY. ALL RIGHT DAVE, THANK YOU. TONIGHT AT SIX ITS BEEN ALMOST TWO WEEKS SINCE HURRICANE HELENE TORE THROUGH WESTERN NORTH CAROLINA. AND WERE NOW HEARING FROM A SURVIVOR. SHE WANTS TO MAKE SURE THAT AS THESE DAYS CONTINUE TO PASS, COMMUNITIES IN NEED ARE NOT FORGOTTEN. OUR JOSHUA DAVIS HAS OUR STORY TONIGHT FROM BOONE. THE DAMAGE SPEAKS FOR ITSELF. BUSINESSES AND HOMES FLOODED THEIR CONTENTS PILED UP ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TO BE LATER THROWN AWAY. WHEREVER YOU GO, YOU SEE THE SCARS OF HURRICANE HELENE. NOW, WHEN I COME OUTSIDE, I JUST SMELL MOLD AND MUD AND JUST STANDING LIKE STANDING WATER. WHILE YOU CAN SEE CONSIDERABLE PROGRESS IN SOME PARTS OF BOONE, SOME SURROUNDING COMMUNITIES AND COUNTIES HAVENT BEEN AS FORTUNATE. CHRISTIE COLERIDGE FROM AVERY COUNTY, HAS BEEN COMING TO BOONE FOR SUPPLIES EVERY DAY WITH HER CAR DESTROYED FROM THE STORM. SHES HAD TO TAKE THE BUS ALL THE DONATIONS THAT ARE COMING IN ARE WONDERFUL AND AND YOU KNOW, THEYRE TRYING TO ORGANIZE TO SEE WHAT THINGS THAT THEY NEED THE MOST, WHICH COLD WEATHER IS COMING UP, WHICH, YOU KNOW, COATS AND SHOES AND BLANKETS ARE GOING TO BE SO IMPORTANT. THOSE SUPPLIES SHES BEEN TAKING HOME TO HER HUSBAND, WHO IS STILL RECOVERING FROM SURGERY HE HAD BEFORE HELENE HIT. HES HAVING ANXIETY BECAUSE YOU KNOW, EVERY EVERY HUSBAND, EVERY MAN WANTS TO PROVIDE FOR THEIR FAMILY AND AND NOW ITS MUCH HARDER FOR THEM TO DO SO. ITS LIKE A CLOUD IS OVER YOU AND YOU JUST CANT DO ENOUGH. BUT SHES WORRIED AS WE GET FARTHER FROM HELENE, I FEAR THAT AFTER A WHILE THAT YOU KNOW, THOSE DONATIONS AND THOSE PEOPLE THAT ARE GIVING ARE JUST GOING TO FADE OUT. AND SHE SAYS ITS THE LITTLE THINGS SHES ALREADY BEGINNING TO MISS MOST. JUST COMING OUT, WALKING MY DOG BY THE RIVER. I LIVE AT ALL THE TREES ARE UPROOTED AND ITS GONE. THE THE BEAUTIFUL PLACE THAT I WALKED MY DOG EVERY DAY. FIVE AND SIX TIMES A DAY. ITS GONE. I CANT EVEN GET TO THE RIVER. AND CHRISTIE BELIEVES IT COULD TAKE WEEKS, MONTHS, OR EVEN YEARS BEFORE THINGS FINALLY GET BACK TO NORMAL. AND EVEN THEN, IT MAY NOT BE THE SAME IN BOONE.
