Electric vehicles catch fire in Helene flooding
SUMMARY: Cleanup efforts continue in Georgia following Hurricane Helen, which resulted in 17 fatalities linked to fallen trees. Key priorities include restoring access to critical roadways, especially to hospitals and emergency services. Over 78,000 customers remain without power, with Georgia Power noting significant damage compared to last year’s storm. Meanwhile, in Florida, saltwater exposure is causing electric vehicles to catch fire. Incidents in Tampa include explosions from lithium batteries and vehicle fires spreading to homes. Residents are urged not to attempt to power on submerged electric devices, as this poses serious safety risks.
Helene brought flooding to several states in the eastern US. Fire crews have dealt with several fires in connection to electric cars in the flooding.

The Texas Debate is a chance for underdog Colin Allred to make a splash against Sen. Ted Cruz
SUMMARY: Tonight marks the pivotal debate between Senator Ted Cruz and Congressman Colin Allred in Dallas, hosted by WFAA. Key topics include abortion and border security, but unexpected moments could sway the audience. Political experts suggest that debates usually have limited impact unless something dramatic occurs. Cruz leads Allred by four percentage points according to a recent poll, with 96% of voters firmly decided. For Allred, this debate is an essential opportunity to challenge Cruz’s lead. Both candidates will continue campaigning across Texas after the debate, hoping to influence undecided voters. A recap will follow tonight.
A new UH Hobby School of Public Affairs poll puts Cruz four points ahead of Allred ahead of Tuesday night’s debate.
