Flooding overwhelms town of Globe as North Carolina governor declares an emergency ahead of storm
At least three people died and others were believed missing after flooding in a rural community in Arizona, officials said on Saturday.
Meanwhile, in South Carolina, crews spent Saturday making preparations for an unnamed weather system that is forecast to approach that state’s coast as a hurricane early next week.
In Arizona, the manager of Gila county’s division of emergency management, Carl Melford, told local news outlet KPHO that two of the people who died were found in a vehicle, and a third person was found elsewhere after flooding Friday in Globe, a city of about 7,250 people about 88 miles (142km) east of Phoenix.
