Tropical Storm Chantal makes landfall in South Carolina, bringing heavy rainfall and potential flash flooding

Tropical Storm Chantal made landfall in South Carolina early Sunday morning and is moving inland, bringing with it heavy rainfall and potential flash flooding. As of 5 a.m. ET Sunday, the center of Chantal was about 70 miles east of Charleston and about 85 miles southwest of Wilmington, North Carolina, the National Hurricane Center in Miami said. Its maximum sustained winds were clocked at 50 mph and it was moving north at 8 mph. The hurricane center said the storm's center is expected to move further inland into South Carolina and then North Carolina through the day Sunday. Chantal is anticipated to rapidly weaken now that it has made landfall, "with the system opening up into a trough in 26-48 hours." Chantal became a tropical storm Saturday morning off the coast of South Carolina, prompting tropical storm warnings for portions of the Carolinas. Forecasters said on Sunday that tropical storm-force winds extend up to 115 miles from the storm's center. They said 45 mph winds were reported at Apache Pier, South Carolina, which is about 100 miles north of Charleston. Tropical storm warnings were issued from the South Santee River in South Carolina to Surf City, North Carolina. Forecasters expect Chantal to produce heavy rainfall across portions of the coastal plain of the Carolinas through Monday, with a total rainfall of two to four inches, with local amounts up to six inches. This could result in flash flooding. South Carolina's Emergency Management division had warned residents earlier of the possibility of isolated tornadoes along the coast and of minor coastal flooding. It also warned drivers not to venture on water-covered roads or around road closure signs where flooding occurred. The Atlantic hurricane season is from June 1 until Nov. 30, with peak activity typically occurring between mid-August and mid-October. NOAA officials predicted a 60% chance of an "above-normal" Atlantic hurricane season, with between 13 to 19 named storms. Six to 10 of those are expected to strengthen into hurricanes, and three to five could become major hurricanes, forecasters said.

Former Volunteer Firefighter Reportedly Missing but Wife Found Alive After Clinging to Trees in Texas Flood Disaster

A former volunteer firefighter is missing and his wife has been found safe after they were caught in the Texas flooding disaster while camping on Friday, July 4 Both Brad and Tina Perry clung to trees when their RV was swept away while they camped in Kerrville, friends told a local news outlet Brad has not been heard from since he spoke with his son briefly on the phone during the flood, while Tina was found alive and hospitalizedA former volunteer firefighter is still missing but his wife has been found safe after they both clung to trees when deadly floodwater came through Texas' Hill Country, according to friends. Brad and Tina Perry, of League City, were camping in their RV in Kerrville when the rain-swollen waters rose early in the morning on Friday, July 4, friends Steven and Debbie Whatley told CBS affiliate KHOU. Around 5 a.m. local time, Brad, 49, told the friends that he was forced to climb on top of a tree when water swept away the RV, according to the Whatleys. Debbie said the couple's youngest son, who is 18 years old, was able to briefly speak to his dad on the phone after receiving a 911 alert from Brad's phone. The son, according to Debbie, said his dad was breathing in a 'labored' manner as he told him, 'I'm in a tree. Your mom is gone. I got to go.' Brad has not been heard from since. Brad previously worked as a volunteer firefighter for League City, the Whatleys told KHOU. They said he worked in swift water rescue while with the department. Tina, 52, was later found clinging to a tree and yelling for help, another family friend said. She was transported to a local hospital with a broken rib and punctured lung. Kerr County, where Kerrville is located, was hit the hardest by the floods: Authorities say approximately 70 people, at least, have died and another 11 people remain missing after the flash flooding disaster, according to the Associated Press and CBS News. At a midday news conference on Sunday, July 6, officials said 38 adults and 21 children were among the rising death toll; 18 adults and four children have yet to be identified.
