Hurricane Helene devastated the southeast last week as one of the worst storms in U.S. history, with the current death toll surpassing 160.
Many people were hit by falling trees or trapped in flooding homes and cars.
Rescue efforts are still in full force as emergency crews work to reach isolated communities that have been cut off due to flooding and collapsed roads.
