This headline is pure hype! It refers to this forecast from the NWS Storm Prediction Center: A green forecast = a trivial risk. It isn't zero but it is a very long shot that tornadoes will occur. That said, there is a significant risk of thunderstorms with damaging winds in the yellow area. Given a thunderstorm, where you see yellow, gusts of 60 mph or stronger are forecast. In the hatching, wind gusts of 75 mph are forecast to occur. 

It is unfortunate, but there are people posting misleading information pertaining to Helene. For example, this was posted on Twitter a couple of hours ago. It purports to forecast Helene to be a super-hurricane  Yes, this is a model prediction for Helene but it is from a model that is not  designed to forecast hurricanes!   Most of today's forecasts from the models designed to forecast hurricanes show the storm to be less intense at landfall than yesterday's forecasts from those same models.  There is plenty to worry about pertaining to Helene: the storm surge , the inland flooding , and -- of course -- the winds at landfall without posting clickbait. 

See this map from Saturday? Take a close look: This is a global warming "hype" map. Red, to almost everyone, means hot/danger. Does anyone really believe that 68°F in Iowa on the 10th of August is "hot"?! Sixty-eight is 12° below normal.  Big Climate has tried to make us think it is hotter by changing weather maps. Here are two examples from Germany. This first is from 2017. Temperatures are in degrees Celsius.  Here's a map from 2017. Temperatures are cooler than on the map above. 24°C = 75°F. Even in Germany, it is hard to believe that 24°C is considered "hot." Yet, it is in deep red.  Below is the Secretary-General of the United Nations using the latest focus-grouped term: Big Climate is relentless in its worldwide quest for money and power. Do not underestimate them!
