PROFILE/DESCRIPTION

They Fled North Carolina After Helene. Now They’re in Another Storm’s Cross Hairs.

“This dumb luck,” said one man who had just escaped the devastating post-Helene conditions in western North Carolina to stay at a friend’s house in Venice, Fla.

After Hurricane Helene left Dan Hadley and Diane deGrasse with no power or water at their home in Black Mountain, N.C., an old friend from church offered them her home in Venice, Fla. She was going to be away, but at least the couple could get a respite from the tough post-storm conditions.
