FOX Weather meteorologist Bob Van Dillen rescued a woman from her SUV as it was getting covered by Hurricane Helene flooding outside of Atlanta on Friday. 

"I know that we're swamped here with all of the 911 calls, because there are so many high-water rescues that we’ve already documented so far… [she] called 911 and, five minutes, 10 minutes, and you could hear screaming, right? You could hear through my live shot, real loud," Van Dillen said on Fox & Friends Friday. "I dropped everything."
