ASHEVILLE, N.C. — Everybody sheltering at A-B Tech had a story to tell Monday about surviving Hurricane Helene. Three days after a massive storm swamped this landlocked city, the shelter at Asheville-Buncombe Technical Community College, known locally as A-B Tech, was at capacity with 149 people, including many families, facing an uncertain future together. “This was shocking to everybody,” said James Yulon Ferguson, 52, whose trailer in the nearby community of Swannanoa is now underwater.
“I just have to start from fresh here.” But where to start remains the unanswered question. “I’m kind of at a loss of what to do,” Nowling said. The feelings of displacement and uncertainty are widespread at A-B Tech, said Karol Chase, a Red Cross disaster program manager who came down from Michigan to set up the shelter. She said she has provided assistance following 15 other natural disasters across the country over the years.
