2024 Hurricanes: One Year Later

On September 26, 2024, Hurricane Helene passed off our coast and made landfall in the Big Bend area. Thirteen days later, Hurricane Milton made landfall near Siesta Key. Both storms devastated parts of our region. And many people are still recovering a year later. WUSF's reporters reached out to some of the people they interviewed after the storms to check back in on them. These are their stories of resilience.
