The aftermath of Hurricane Helene in Asheville, North Carolina, has brought about significant challenges due to a lack of running water in the area. Asheville Mayor Esther Manheimer has stated that the restoration of the water system is facing delays, leaving many residents without access to water in their homes.
Mayor Manheimer expressed concerns about the prolonged duration of the water system outage, indicating that it is unlikely to be resolved in the near future. As a result of the water system issues, all Asheville City and Buncombe County public schools have been forced to close indefinitely until the necessary repairs are completed.
