Heavy Rain Threatens Southeast, Flash Floods Possible
• Heavy rain and thunderstorms threaten the Southeast, raising the risk of flash floods.
• Coastal areas of Florida, Georgia, and the Carolinas are at high risk for localized flooding.
• The storm system will move north, impacting the Carolinas and southern Mid-Atlantic with continued rain and storms.
Southeast faces threat of heavy rain
Heavy rain and thunderstorms are posing a significant threat to the Southeast, with potential for flash floods. An upper-level low-pressure system combined with a coastal system is drawing moisture inland, leading to substantial rainfall. The coasts of Florida, Georgia, and the Carolinas are particularly vulnerable to localized flooding. The southern Appalachian region also faces a heightened risk of flash floods due to the excessive rainfall.
