Threat level: The threat of heavy rains, flash flooding and possible tornadoes remained Friday, moving up the Appalachians and into New England after the storm headed toward southwestern Georgia overnight and caused at least two deaths in Florida, where it made landfall as a Category 1 hurricane in the state's east with a large, destructive wind field early Thursday.
