Wild weather: Deadly floods and a record-breaking cold spell

CTV Edmonton's Josh Classen recaps a week of wild weather: flooding in Texas and North Carolina, and a cold spell in Argentina. CTV Edmonton's Josh Classen recaps a week of wild weather: flooding in Texas and North Carolina, and a cold spell in Argentina. Here are some of the weather stories making headlines this past week. Texas floods More than 100 people have been killed in the devastating floods that struck central Texas late last week. Among the dead are 27 young girls and the staff members from Camp Mystic, an all-girls camp on the banks of the Guadalupe River. That river rose more than 22 feet (almost 7seven metres) in just a few hours after torrential downpours dropped 13 to 28 centimetres of rain. Search are rescue efforts continue with over 150 people still missing. North Carolina floods Deadly floods also hit North Carolina this past week. Tropical depression Chantal dumped more than 18 centimetres of rain and produced record-setting river levels that led to the worst floods this region has seen in decades. Four deaths have been confirmed and dozens of people had to be rescued. Argentina cold spell While Europe swelters in record-break heat, it's a different story in Argentina where residents are dealing with unusually cold conditions. Temperatures in Buenos Aires hit - 2 C. That's the coldest temperature in more than 30 years and about 10 degrees below average. A few other spots in Argentina set record lows during the cold spell.
