At least 17 South Carolinians are dead in the wake of Helene's onslaught, a death toll that continues to rise. In Anderson County, a man whose partner was killed in the storm recounted the chaos of that night to The Post and Courier.
North Augusta sustained major damage city-wide after tropical storm Helene swept through the area Thursday night in an event that many said is the worst they’ve experienced in decades.

The uncertainty of what will happen is no more.
