"With less than a month left to apply for federal aid, it looks like many western North Carolinians may not receive direct financial assistance as they rebuild their homes."
(According to WFAE's (CLT Public Radio) Climate News)
Details: One month after Helene hit, FEMA approved $200 million for over 121,000 households in the state. So far, only 15% of homes in western North Carolina have applied for FEMA aid, according to reporting by The Washington Post. Over 274,000 N.C. residents applied for federal disaster relief, and FEMA has paid out over $15.8 million as of this week. -
Hey #PhysicalMedia friends in the United States: I ordered an import deluxe 4K blu-ray of It Follows the other day, from a store in #AshevilleNC called Orbit DVD: https://www.orbitdvd.com/
Super quick to ship, very well packed, and cheaper than other places I had seen it online. It's just the one transaction so far, but I think from here on out, they'll be my go-to source. -
