Tropical storm Chantal hurricane weakens but still poses big threat to North Carolina. NHC issues urgent travel warning
Tropical storm Chantal made landfall on the East on Sunday, impacting millions of Carolians. The storm has prompted flash flood warnings as it brought heavy rain and winds to coastal areas. Chantal was downgraded to a depression on Sunday after making landfall but continues to pose significant risks of flash flooding across central and eastern North Carolina, according to NewsWeek.

Forecasters said dangerous surf and rip currents at beaches from northeastern Florida to the mid-Atlantic states are expected to last for the next couple of days. As the intensity of the storm lessened, heavy rainfall and dangerous surf conditions remained a threat from the coastal Carolinas as far north as the Mid-Atlantic states. Though the National Hurricane Centre (NHC) cancelled tropical storm warnings for the region but it has advised that rainfall in some pockets could reach up to 6 inches, increasing the threat for flash floods and dangerous travel conditions on Sunday and Monday. Live Events "The Haw River at Bynum in Chatham County is now forecast to crest near 21.2 feet at around 8 a.m. Monday morning," said Jonathan Blaes of the National Weather Service on Sunday night. "At 9:31 p.m., the river was at 17.0 feet and the river had surged up more than 4 feet during the past hour and 7.7 feet over the past two hours. This crest is just below the all-time crest or flood of record of 21.8 feet set during Hurricane Fran."

Even though Chantal has weakened, millions of people still remain in the affected zone and their lives might be at stake. Heavy rains on already saturated grounds heighten the risk of flash flooding, particularly near rivers and low-lying areas of North Carolina. Accumulations of 2 to 4 inches—locally up to 6 inches—were forecast, potentially threatening property, infrastructure, and transportation, according to a report in NewsWeek. The Weather Prediction Center (WPC) highlighted the continued "threat of flash flooding across nearby coastal plain" as a key concern, urging residents to heed local advisories. Chatham County, North Carolina, said on its official X account that part of NC Highway 902 near Chatham Central Rd. had collapsed. "Over 100 roads across the county are flooded, and flooding is expected to continue through tonight and tomorrow—even after the rain ends," the county said.

"These rainfall amounts may lead to scattered instances of flash flooding. Chantal is forecast to steadily weaken to a remnant low as it moves further inland through North Carolina by Monday morning" the WPC warned. The remnants of Chantal are expected to continue moving northeastward through North Carolina and toward southern Virginia by Monday. The risk of isolated heavy downpours and flash flooding will persist into Monday, even as the storm weakens further.

Monsoon fury in Pakistan: 72 dead, over 130 injured in flash floods; authorities issue high alert
Pakistan flash floods (Image credits: ANI) At least 72 people have been killed and over 130 injured in Pakistan as relentless monsoon rains and flash floods battered the country over the past ten days, the National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) said on Monday. Since June 26, casualties have been reported across Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Punjab, Sindh, and Balochistan provinces. The NDMA has urged local administrations to remain on high alert and advised tourists to steer clear of vulnerable areas, warning that continued rainfall could lead to further flooding and road blockages. Emergency services were already on heightened alert after a tragic incident last month in which 17 members of the same family were swept away by the Swat River. Thirteen bodies were recovered, including eight children, while four people were rescued. Footage of the family stranded on a rooftop and pleading for help sparked public outrage and criticism of the delayed rescue response. Many of the recent deaths were caused by collapsing walls and roofs, as well as sudden floods in low-lying areas. Officials are concerned that worsening weather conditions could mirror the devastating 2022 floods, which killed over 1,700 people and submerged nearly a third of the country. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Acer TravelLite Laptop Your AI assistant at work acer Book Now Undo The NDMA has said it cannot rule out the possibility of similar large-scale disasters this year. With a population of more than 240 million, Pakistan remains one of the most climate-vulnerable nations in the world. Scientists warn that climate change is driving a rise in both the frequency and severity of extreme weather events, putting millions at risk. Rescue operations are ongoing, and authorities have called on the public to remain cautious as the monsoon season continues to intensify.

Typhoon Danas hits Taiwan: 2 killed, hundreds injured; international flights cancelled
People walk in the rain in Taipei, as Typhoon Danas was passing through Taiwan (Image credit: AP) Typhoon Danas slammed into Taiwan's west coast late Sunday, killing two people and injuring nearly 500, according to the Central Weather Administration. By early Monday, almost 400,000 households were still without power. The storm made a rare and direct landfall in Chiayi County—marking the first time on record that a typhoon has struck the area. The agency described Danas's path as 'very unusual,' with gusts reaching up to 222 kilometers (138 miles) per hour in the island's southwest. Though Danas moved north and exited the island by early Monday, it left behind torrential rainfall. More than 500 millimeters (20 inches) of rain fell across southern Taiwan over the weekend, triggering widespread flooding. Among the fatalities, a 60-year-old man died after a power outage disabled his ventilator, while a 69-year-old man was fatally struck by a falling tree while driving. At least 491 people were injured, reported AFP quoting to the National Fire Agency. Emergency crews evacuated around 3,500 residents, primarily from mountainous regions near the southern city of Kaohsiung, due to fears of landslides and flash floods. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Show Off Your Talent: Enter the Ultimate Creator Contest! Tocsin Media & Marketing LLC Undo Air travel was also disrupted, with 33 international flights canceled on Monday as the storm's effects lingered. Taiwan, which routinely faces typhoons between July and October, was especially hard-hit by Danas because of its unusual trajectory and powerful winds, making it one of the most disruptive storms in recent memory.
