Footage shows how debris from Hurricane Helene filled a lake in North Carolina on October 2.

The Maryland Task Force 1 (MD-TF1) and other emergency response teams, equipped with tools and search and rescue K9 units, have been combing areas buried under heavy debris and mud.

Hurricane Helene, one of the deadliest mainland hurricanes in the US since Katrina, killed more than 225, half of whom were from North Carolina.

It made landfall in the Big Bend area of the Florida Gulf Coast on September 26 evening as a Category 4 storm with winds above 140mph and a 15ft (4.5 metres) storm surge.

Helene dumped heavy rains on Georgia, the Carolinas, Tennessee, Virginia, and Kentucky, causing deadly flooding.

Hundreds of victims remain missing, and 780,000 homes are still without electricity a week after its landfall.
