Asheville, United States. 02 October, 2024. Satellite view of Asheville and Black Mountain following torrential rains and flooding from the French Broad and Swannanoa Rivers in western North Carolina caused by Hurricane Helene, October 2, 2024. The extreme rain, amplified by the rugged terrain, produced deadly and destructive flash floods submerging entire communities, swamping farmland, unmoored buildings from their foundations, and sweeping away power and water infrastructure.
