Chimney Rock, North Carolina, sirens blare as flooding occurs

A frightening video showed apocalyptic sirens as Hurricane Helene's fierce flooding devastated a North Carolina village.

The shocking clip begins with a powerful wave of muddy water rushing across a yard in Chimney Rock, demolishing parts of a house and sweeping away debris with the tide.

“My car is gone. Everything is gone. “It’s all gone,” the unidentified filmmaker can be heard saying, while a second person hastily reassures them: “It’s fine.”

The powerful current was so powerful that it destroyed important roads and created new channels for floodwaters to flow through.

SUVs were seen floating down rivers and being smashed into trees.

The floods rose so much that they completely inundated the ground floors of some houses.

Many were subsequently demolished. Those who remained were crushed and flooded with mud.

“Okay guys, just to give you some perspective on the devastation we're dealing with here: Chimney Rock is gone,” said another filmmaker as he panned to the remains of the village.
