“Know that water is rising fast everywhere, even in places that don’t typically flood,” said Governor Roy Cooper.
“This system is unloading epic amounts of rainfall: in some places, measured in feet, not inches,” he added. (READ: Residents told to ‘get out now’ as Florence takes aim at Carolinas)
He added that 5 deaths have been officially confirmed as a result of Florence – which made landfall Friday as a Category 1 hurricane but has since been downgraded to a tropical storm – and that several others were under investigation.
