Hurricane Helene may have come and gone, but the remnants of the powerful storm — which first made landfall on Florida’s Gulf Coast — traveled up the eastern seaboard and triggered heavy rains and flooding as far west as Tennessee. As predicted, Helene made landfall as a Category 4 hurricane just west of Perry, Florida, late Thursday night — and set a new record for the strongest storm to hit the state’s Big Bend region. While the strong winds were devastating, massive storm surges caused life-threatening flash floods and devastated entire towns. Almost every property saw some damage when the storm surge left Horseshoe Beach, Florida. Heartbreaking scene as catastrophic storm surge leaves Horseshoe Beach, Florida destroyed. Almost every house sustained damage. @MyRadarWX #Hurricane #Helene pic.twitter.com/LcfXADRnEB — Jordan Hall (@JordanHallWX) September 27, 2024 The National Hurricane Center warned before Helen hit Florida that conditions were ripe for flooding and landslides in the southern Appalachians. “This rainfall will likely result in catastrophic and potentially life-threatening flash and urban flooding, along with significant river flooding. Numerous landslides are expected in steep terrain across the southern Appalachians,” a statement read. In the days since, that prediction has also proved true as photos and videos of the floods and damages have continued to crop up on social media into the weekend. “Massive debris flow traveling at lightning speed in eastern TN! The preceding drought conditions followed by days of rain ahead of Hurricane Helene set the stage. This is incredibly rapid for a debris flow,” meteorologist Reed Timmer posted.

I-40 and I-26 are impassable in multiple locations. ⚠️ Travel in this area for non-emergency purposes is hindering needed emergency response.#ncwx #Helene pic.twitter.com/jtK2ZMJW9T — NCDOT (@NCDOT) September 28, 2024 “All roads in and out of Asheville, NC are still closed! It sounds like Asheville is still only accessible by air unless you head up from I26, and even then you will encounter closures before the city. This is an absolute mega disaster for western NC on the order of Hurricane Katrina,” Timmer posted. All roads in and out of Asheville, NC are still closed!

Pray for the farmers. They work so hard as it is and many can’t afford flood insurance and virtually none have hurricane insurance,” one posted. “#Helene took their livelihood.” Tennessee farmland and the devastation hard working farmers must face.

By Daniel Strain/University of Colorado Boulder Oktoberfest, the German beer festival, kicked off this week in Munich. To mark the occasion, Travis Rupp, assistant teaching professor in the Department of Classics, tackles the question: “How old is beer?” Humans are no strangers to kicking back with a cool pint of beer. The Ancient Egyptians, for example, had a hankering for beer that was a little bit tart, almost like a modern-day gose, a lemony beer from Germany. Homer, the Ancient Greek poet, spoke of a beverage called κυκέων (pronounced “kee-kay-own), which was a mixture of grape wine and fermented grains. But exactly how old is beer? Old, says Rupp. Really, really old. Deeply Historic Role of Beer Rupp, a.k.a. the “Beer Archaeologist,” has arguably one of the tastiest jobs in academia. He travels the world to learn how ancient cultures made beer, then recreates those recipes in a research brewery in his garage. Currently, he’s aging two variations of Homer’s Greek libation, which, Rupp said, are higher in alcohol than traditional beers.  “When I’m drinking a glass of wine, typically I want to sip on it with my wife,” he said while sipping on a Kiwi Herman New Zealand Lager at Vision Quest Brewing in Boulder, Colorado. “If I’ve got scotch out, I want alone time…But when it’s beer, I want to drink beer with other people. Beer has been the thing that’s bound us together for a long time.” Read moreSection: NewsHistory & ArchaeologyHistoryAncient TraditionsRead Later
