Episode Details

Tropical Storm Arthur, the first Atlantic storm of the season, may not pack hurricane-force winds—but it’s unleashing a deadly deluge. With 5 to 10 inches of rain expected, and up to 20 inches in some spots, flash flooding is the top threat, already hitting Houston and spreading across Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, and the Florida Panhandle through Friday. A tragic drowning of a 15-year-old boy in a flooded retention pond underscores the danger. Compounding the risk: tornadoes possible through Thursday, dangerous surf along the Gulf Coast, and lingering flooding even after the storm weakens. This storm proves that even a “weaker” system can bring life-threatening conditions.
