Flooding In Tennessee Damages Countless Cars
Read the full story on The Auto Wire Flooding in Chattanooga, Tennessee made a mess of roads, flooding countless cars and causing widespread destruction. Even worse, at the time this article was written, the death toll was at four individuals, a number which likely will more rain forecasted for the area by the National Weather Service, the flooding is expected to worsen before it gets better. That has officials pleading with people to stay home instead of trying to traverse flooded roads. Numerous streets and neighborhoods are flooded, with cars abandoned as drivers who thought they could make it were forced to leave their rides. Even more shocking, sections of Interstate 24 by the Georgia border have become impassible, thanks to high waters and stalled out cars. Footage taken by a bystander and shared on social media site X shows a man breaking the back window on an SUV to rescue a woman trapped inside. The water comes up to the man's neck as the vehicle floats helplessly in the floodwaters. One of the deceased was found in floodwaters as rescuers searched for someone else who was swept away, reports Chattanooga Times Free Press. The other three deaths were from a family who were in their car when a tree fell on it. The best way to not get into a bad situation when a road is flooded is to not drive down it. Many times, drivers believe the water they're headed towards is shallower than it really is, only realizing once they're literally in too deep that they're in trouble. Everyone should have a glass break in their car, just in case they end up in a situation where they need to escape through a window quickly. Most vehicles will float for a few minutes before they start to sink, and that's when you want to get out. Image via X Join our Newsletter, subscribe to our YouTube page, and follow us on Facebook.

Maryland faces more heat, humidity, and storms Thursday
Maryland will see another hot and humid weather day with high temperatures approaching 90°. Given the continued high humidity levels, feels like temperatures will spike into the 95° to 100° range this afternoon. Expect hot and humid weather to continue Thursday through early next week. Today's weather will feature plenty of heat and humidity across Maryland. High temperatures will be within a few degrees of 90°, but the heat index will be more intense reaching the middle to upper 90s. Friday and Saturday will feature similar heat and humidity levels. While not as high as recent days, we're still looking at a muggy feel. High temperatures both afternoons will climb into the upper 80s with feels like temperatures reaching the lower to middle 90s. The hottest day of this stretch will come on Sunday with highs in the lower 90s and heat index values near or above 100°. During this stretch of hot weather, please stay hydrated and make sure to take heat precautions for yourself, friends, family, and pets. Hit or miss thunderstorms will form across Maryland this afternoon. Plan on quickly changing weather conditions in some areas as storms may form quickly starting around the lunch hour and continuing through early evening. Not every neighborhood will receive downpours, but areas that do receive storms will get brief and blinding downpours, gusty winds, lightning, and even small hail. Storms will begin to fizzle out between 7 p.m. and 9 p.m. and once the storms diminish our weather is looking much drier Friday into the weekend. Tropical Storm Erin will continue to gain size and intensity as it continues its journey west across the open Atlantic Ocean. The storm is expected to become a hurricane by Friday evening and a major hurricane sometime over the weekend. The increasingly large swells and rough surf from "Erin" may reach Delaware and Maryland Atlantic beaches as early as this weekend. A high risk of dangerous rip currents will likely continue well into next week as "Erin" begins to turn north and parallels the eastern seaboard. While direct impacts from "Erin" are not expected at this time, rough surf and dangerous rip currents will be impacting not only Maryland and Delaware Atlantic beaches, but most of the eastern seaboard from Florida to New England as the storm strengthens into a major hurricane by early next week. Please only swim at beaches with lifeguards on duty as the rip currents will produce a very dangerous situation at the beaches up and down the east coast.
