Hurricane Helene.聽 As far as we know, all AASC members in the area are safe, as are our colleagues at the National Centers for Environmental Information, our country’s steward of the historical climate record.聽 The temporary loss of access to climate data brought about by Hurricane Helene is a trivial inconvenience compared to the hardships endured by people in the region, during the storm, during cleanup, and during the months and years of recovery to come.</p><p>We encourage you to make your own decisions on how you’d like to help with both short-term relief and long-term recovery.聽 We have received the following suggestions from members in North Carolina on ways to help, some of which are specific to the Asheville area, others are more broad across the region.聽 There are also
