High Wind in Scott, Virginia

Severe tree damage with dozens of trees felled by powerful Helene associated winds on US Forestry lands, with a social media report of impassable trails around the Devil's Bathtub loop trail. Saturated soils from several inches of rain combined with long duration winds to fell trees.

Tropical Storm Helene caps off a several day heavy rainfall event in association with a stalled closed upper low with additional rain yielding catastrophic flash and river flooding, and significant wind damage as wet soils and strong wind gusts led to forest damage.
