Small towns struggle to recover years after devastating hurricane floods.

Historic flooding after Hurricane Matthew in 2016 devastated rural eastern North Carolina. Three towns, Princeville, Seven Springs, and Fair Bluff were particularly hard hit. The challenges before them included devising ways to become more resilient to future floods in this era of climate change. But before plans could be acted upon, Hurricane Florence arrived, changing everything.
