Hurricane Helene was the strongest hurricane on record to hit Florida’s Big Bend. The major hurricane devastated coastal communities with record storm surge. A team of WUFT reporters visited the coast just hours after Hurricane Helene made landfall. They continued reporting day, weeks, and months after the storm. WUFT News presents a collection of stories called Hurricane Helene: The Big Bend’s Recovery.
