Chantal Hits Carolinas, Stein Vetoes, Helene Recovery Ongoing

Tropical Storm Chantal has made landfall in the Carolinas, bringing heavy rain and wind to the region. Governor Stein has vetoed a series of anti-DEI bills but signed new legislation on licensure agreements and parental rights. As recovery from Hurricane Helene continues, communities like Black Mountain and Lake Lure face a long rebuilding process, though Chimney Rock is expected to reopen within a month.
