Not a direct hit, but Hurricane Helene has left its mark on Lee County, Fort Myers Beach in particular, Sanibel, Cape Coral and more locations.
Hurricane Helene may have passed, but Sarasota and Manatee counties are still suffering from damage and flooding due to the storm.
City officials shared clips of boats slammed into homes and a residence burning amid the floodwaters as they conducted water rescue operations.
In a special update from the National Hurricane Center, Helene made landfall just east of the mouth of the Aucilla River.
