Cold front to hit North Carolina as families remain in tents after Hurricane Helene

A major cold front is expected to hit Western North Carolina, where many families are still living in tents and cars nearly two months after Hurricane Helene. Local reports indicate that over 1,150 children are homeless, facing freezing temperatures. FEMA's response to the disaster has faced criticism, with claims that funds were mismanaged and diverted. Many residents are frustrated as they see federal resources allocated to support illegal immigrants in hotels while local victims remain without adequate shelter. As temperatures drop below freezing, community advocates are calling for immediate assistance for those affected. The situation highlights ongoing concerns about FEMA's effectiveness in disaster response and resource allocation.
