Communities across Tennessee could experience heavy rainfall, strong wind gusts and flash flooding through Friday morning as the remnants of Hurricane Helene move through the area.
The remnants of the Category 4 storm will move north from the Florida coast and into East Tennessee before curving northwest across southeast Tennessee, according to the National Weather Service in Morristown.
“The main concerns with this system for us will be heavy rain/flooding and very strong winds,” the weather service said.
