A man embraces his daughter-in-law among the debris of his destroyed home in Horseshoe Beach, Florida, on Saturday. Some of the roads and bridges they need to do the job aren’t there anymore. Helene’s path of destruction stretched more than 500 miles, from coastal Florida to the Blue Ridge Mountains. Power companies are dealing with damaged and blocked roads as they work to restore power to homes and businesses. The president approved disaster relief and has been in contact with the governors where the damage was most severe.
