Boone's on the list, but...
"'I've never heard the mountains groan'
As recovery efforts from Helene continue in Boone, North Carolina, a sinkhole has formed near Wilson Ridge and Bamboo Road. An example, officials say, that everyone should avoid unnecessary travel. 'The mountain exploded with water everywhere and it was like white water rafting for a couple hundred meters wide and it was just coming down everywhere that it could,' Curtis Hubbard, a Boone resident, told WCNC Charlotte. 'I've never heard the mountains... groan... you could hear the trees rushing.'"
