of nights in the hospital. I got
bronchitis, and nobody has time for
that. I'm feeling much better now. Thank
you for all the well-wishes you sent on
social media. You are all the reason why
CNN 10 is the best 10 minutes in news.
We start today with a storm that could
bring some wicked weather to parts of
the southeast United States this week.
Tropical depression 9 formed over the
weekend in the Caribbean and as of this
taping is expected to strengthen into
tropical storm Alda. The storm could
bring heavy rain to parts of the coastal
US about a year after Hurricane Helen
tore through the same region. Helen left
the trail of destruction across Florida,
Georgia, and the Carolas. The biggest
impact was felt in the mountains of
western North Carolina. Our Isabelle
Rosales was on the ground in Asheville
during the devastation. Now, one year
later, she returned to see how the
community is recovering.
It's not often you get to see the
remnants of a storm like this a year
later.
Yeah. So, this this is one of the the
houses that you can still walk inside.
It's really frozen in time.
Among the damp wood and abandoned
belongings, a visceral reminder of what
Helen took in minutes. These walls mark
the survival of a family. But the loss
of a place they once called their little
Eden. The
water was pouring in and going higher
and higher. And so they feared for their
lives that they might drown. And so he
grabbed a flashlight and a putty knife
and he started hacking through the
ceiling right here.
Recovery is far from over. in hard hit
Swanoa just outside Asheville with many
families still struggling in mountain
country
a year later what is the need here in
this community
the need is vast you know we still have
people that are in temporary shelter and
many people lost their jobs businesses
were gone they kind of went through
Amy Kentrell and Poncho Bjo tell me
there's a full-blown housing crisis with
tens of thousands of people still
displaced
Asheville is among the nonprofits racing
to close that gap building 120 homes and
counting just a few feet from where the
Mills family home drifted.
They said it felt like they were inside
a boat
off its foundation.
You know, there's floating inside their
house.
Rest their new Eden built above the
waterline of Helen.
And we are in a deep connection now in
these Appalachian Mountains and we are
stronger than ever.
We got some pretty serious
from the heart of Builtmore Village in
Asheville.
How do we fix this?
Joe Scully
was the wall
has been documenting the tireless
comeback story of Corner Kitchen. 10
months more than 300 days through the
seasons
until this moment.
Open after 10 months closed.
The hometown restaurant now a welcome
home back. And then when we actually
started to get like people in, it was
actually a little scary.
Yeah. You got the jitters
a little.
This fall, the stakes are higher than
ever as visitors pour into high country
to take in the changing foliage.
In western North Carolina, the next few
months could make or break a small
business.
It's a possible reality that people will
not be able to make it if they don't
have the guests and the tourists to come
for this next 3-month period.
A Chamber of Commerce survey of mostly
small businesses found 90% of
respondents project a revenue loss and
nearly 45% report a moderate to
significant risk of closure.
This could be two chicken salads all
day.
The corner kitchen back from the brink
and buzzing with sound. And this stark
reminder of just how high the flood
waters climbed.
Why rebuild in a place that's flooded
before?
It's too precious not to try.
Now to a fantastic feat of engineering
in China that's reaching new heights,
literally. The world's tallest bridge
now officially open in the mountainous
province of Guaiu. Packing some serious
stats. The Ha Jang Grand Canyon Bridge
towers at 2,50 ft above the river below.
It's nearly four times higher than the
Washington Monument, nine times taller
than the clearance of the massive Golden
Gate Bridge in San Francisco. At nearly
9,500 ft long with a main span of more
than 4600 ft, it is the longest steel
truss suspension bridge in a mountainous
region. Officials say the bridge will
cut travel time across the Huajang
Canyon from more than 2 hours to just 2
minutes. Construction took more than
three years and resulted in 21 new
patents, some of which have even been
incorporated into China's national
bridge building standards.
Pop quiz hot shot. In addition to flying
airplanes, Amelia Heheart also worked as
a social worker, lawyer, music teacher,
or dentist.
If you say social worker, you're in
first class, baby. In the 1920s, Amelia
Heheart took a job at a settlement house
in Boston, which aimed to provide
education and job training to immigrant
families, women, and children living in
poor neighborhoods. Amelia Heheart was
the first female pilot to fly solo over
the Atlantic Ocean. But in 1937, when
she was attempting to become the first
woman to fly around the world, her plane
suddenly went missing over the Pacific
Ocean. And the disappearance has
remained a mystery ever since. But now
there are some new developments that
might bring new insight as to what may
have happened. President Donald Trump is
ordering his administration to
declassify and release all government
records related to Hehheart's
disappearance nearly 90 years ago. She
was declared lost at sea following a
16-day search, and her plane was never
found. There have been many questions
and theories regarding the aviation
pioneers disappearance, but the US
government has long suspected that
Hehheart and her navigator crashed into
the Pacific when the plane ran out of
fuel. Just last year, sonar imagery
turned up what some hoped was the
longlost plane near a remote island
halfway between Hawaii and Australia,
but it turned out to be a rock
formation. A new expedition to locate
the plane is slated to launch in
November. Now to an innovative creation
that could be the answer to combating
the rises in cost for things like our
residential electricity, natural gas,
heating and cooling our homes and more.
Georgia Tech or Georgia Institute of
Technology in Atlanta has built the
first ever living building in the
Southeast US. This piece of architecture
gets its energy from the sun, water from
the sky or ground. It even has corn and
tomatoes growing on top of it. Our Derek
Vanam takes us there. Imagine
the future of American cities, where
buildings give back to the environment
more than it takes. Tucked within the
urban landscape of Atlanta's Georgia
Tech campus, is proof of how
construction can live in harmony with
its surroundings.
It's a living building.
Shan Aurora is the director of the
Candida building and is advocating for
its unique design to act as a catalyst
for change in the building industry.
Over the course of a year, the building
produces 100% of its electricity needs
plus another 100%. Wow.
So, it's 200% net positive energy and
the excess electricity goes to our
sister buildings on campus. And you see
the sun just came out. More free
electricity.
From its zerocarbon construction to its
rooftop solar array, this building goes
far beyond sustainability. It's left no
stone unturned. The Candida building on
Georgia Tech's campus is updating the
three Rs that you might be familiar with
from your childhood. Reduce, reuse,
recycle. Two, regenerative, resilient,
restorative. Features like its rooftop
garden combines these three new Rs with
an aesthetic appeal that anyone can
enjoy.
I don't know where else you see corn
growing.
You got corn here.
We got corn. Beautiful tomatoes. I mean,
come check this out. Imagine
own this rooftop garden.
The building's water collection system
is not connected to the city sewer,
providing resilience against Atlanta's
aging wastewater infrastructure.
You take a shower in the building, wash
your hands, it goes here. It's a
pollinator garden. Native Georgia bees
having lunch.
Sean says that we're not far off as a
society to make these features a reality
in every building.
Is the price of electricity going to go
up? Yeah. Is the price of water going to
go up? Yeah. Sewage? Yeah. If you're
going to own a building for a hundred
years, why wouldn't you make the
building resilient?
[Applause]
Today's story getting a Jew out of Jew.
The fastest human ever recorded on all
fours. Rios Yoni. Look at him go. The
22-year-old from Yanugo, Japan, broke
the Guinness World Record for fastest
100 meter quadripedal run by a human
with a blistering time of 14.55
seconds. And he did it in his hometown.
Yonissan trusted his animal instincts,
broke the previous record set by
American column clure in 2022 by more
than a full second. He said his interest
in this unorthodox feat began in middle
school after a teacher mentioned that
animals run faster that way. So, he
trained for this for years, studying the
movements of dogs, cats, even monkeys to
perfect his technique. Awesome stuff.
Also, awesome you. My first shout out of
the day goes to Mr. Snow and Friends at
Lebanon Middle School in Lebanon,
Indiana. Go Tigers. And from our CNN 10
Instagram followers, Mrs. Ryan, St.
George Episcopal School in San Antonio,
Texas. Thank you for making us part of
your day. Remember to like and subscribe
our CNN 10 YouTube channel for your
shout out request. Make it a monumental
Monday, my peeps. I will see you right
back here tomorrow. I'm Ky Wire and we
