Hurricane Helene made its way through the southeast last week, leaving thousands of people across the region without power for multiple days.

Here are some images of the damage in and around Savannah.

Students on the Armstrong Campus lost power early Friday morning. It has since been restored.

“The wind started picking up around midnight,” said Jacob Harper, a senior at Armstrong. “And around 3 am it was starting to get scary. The wind was really loud.”

Harper said his power was restored within hours “with the help of a generator.” He was also provided with a window air conditioning unit from the university.

“I was a little worried about the state of the roof because I could hear tiles coming off in the night,” said Raven Mahaffey, who lives on the top floor of Compass Point.

Mahaffey said the university’s relief efforts were “reasonable” given the degree of damage brought upon the campus.

Zacaria Rock said campus felt “creepy” without electricity.

“Dorms were dark,” Rock said. “They had no lights on except for in the hallways. Everybody was in the University Hall.”

Rock said several students took shelter in University Hall because it had internet connection and functioning lights.

Psychology major Jahfafi Tassy stayed at his parent’s home in Pooler during the storm. He returned to campus at the beginning of the week.

“My experience has been fine,” Tassy said of his return to his dorm. “Besides minor, little problems. Like sometimes the wifi goes out here and there, but other than that it’s been a good experience.”

While dealing with its own restoration following Helene, Armstrong has served as a community resource for food and shelter.

A press release sent on Monday from President Marrero announced that line workers and students from East Georgia State College are sheltering at Armstrong. Other university hurricane relief efforts were detailed, as well:

The press release also stated that all classes are canceled until Oct. 7  “to allow the necessary time for recovery efforts and to ensure that students, faculty, and staff have the resources they need to resume coursework.”

Approximately 120,000 Savannah residents were without power, according to Mayor Van Johnson in an interview with WSAV3. That number is continually shrinking as Georgia Power works to restore power.

There are several hurricane relief resources available in Savannah and on campus if you are in need of supplies.
