Virginia farms were estimated to have $159 million in damage from the storm. The popular Virginia Creeper Trail that stretches from White Top to Abingdon draws hundreds of bicyclists to Damascus to ride part of the trail. The Virginia Creeper Trail’s rebuild will cost an estimated $200-300 million and is projected to be completed in October 2026. Three people in Virginia died as a result of the storm, as well as over 250 people in other states. Once the weight was too much, the trestle or bridge would break, sending the onslaught of water and debris down stream.
