BBC – Drone video shows Hurricane Helene’s path of destruction

Aerial footage reveals the scale of damage caused by the strongest storm on record to hit Florida’s Big Bend.

Hurricane Helene is one of the most powerful storms ever to hit the United States with wind gust speeds of 140 mph (225 km/h) and heavy rain.

The storm made landfall in Florida overnight on Thursday as a category four hurricane but was downgraded to a tropical storm as it moved rapidly more inland.
