Emergency crews in parts of West Virginia and Pennsylvania worked tirelessly to rescue residents as severe storms caused widespread flooding on Thursday night. The storms were part of a larger weather system that had already caused significant damage in Florida, including destructive tornadoes and flooding along the Gulf Coast.
Flash flood warnings were issued for western parts of West Virginia and Pennsylvania, with heavy rain leading to flooded streets and homes. Fortunately, the warnings were lifted early Friday morning as the rain subsided to showers.
