in Union Mills. I was able to catch up and get in contact with them through the Facebook group "Hurricane Helene Safety Check-In". They lost more than 20 trees on their property and have 3 damaged buildings, but they're all safe. They have no water or electricity and expect it to be out at least another week, but she was able to get into work yesterday to charge her phone.

Sending good thoughts and prayers to your sister and everyone dealing with the aftermath of Helene.
