Monday morning, roughly three days after the Tampa Bay region felt the historic punch of Hurricane Helene as it charged up the Gulf Coast, tens of thousands of local residents still had no electricity.

On Pass-A-Grille Beach, forecasters projected 6 feet or greater of water above ground just hours before Hurricane Helene's storm surge peaked on Thursday. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's National Ocean Service flew over the Tampa Bay area on Sunday to help document the storm damage from above. [ National Ocean Service ]

Just days after Hurricane Helene made landfall in Florida as a Category 4 storm, Tampa Bay residents continue to see the storm's impact throughout the area.
