North Carolina rainfall totals from Chantal with data from 50+ sites
Chantal weakened to a tropical depression and generally went north, crossing over Raleigh, but the western location of the storm's intense rainfall cells took the flooding over an area generally south of the Triangle, then northwest to Moore County, and then northward.
The path of the storm — along with the rotation of torrential rainfall repeatedly over some areas — took the worst of Chantal over Lee, Chatham, Durham, Orange, and Person counties.
The track and continued rotation of sheets of rain meant massive amounts of water in a generally vertical band running just west of Wake County and east of Guilford County.

Severe storm chances for the Denver metro and Eastern Colorado Wednesday
We're tracking the potential for some severe weather going into the day today, the Denver metro area is under a level 2 threat for those severe storms. The Interstate 25 corridor is under that slight risk. We're sandwiched between two areas of more marginal threats for severe weather. The potential for that activity to build later on today certainly isn't out of the question. As far as storm threats are concerned, we have the risk of picking up any of our severe storm threats, with the greatest threat being hail. Along the Front Range, that means the threat of hail larger than an inch. But we also have the potential to see some of those strong, damaging winds gusting over 60 mph, localized flooding with heavy rain isn't out of the question, nor is the potential for some rotation that could lead to a tornado. We'll start to see storms fire up in the high country about noon or 1 p.m., working their way into the foothills around 1 or 2 p.m. and likely crossing into the Denver area after about 1 p.m. We're going to continue to see those scattered storms roll through the I-25 corridor out onto the Eastern Plains. Lingering moisture takes us into the night tonight, but that severe threat will start to diminish as we head into the evening and overnight hours. The other thing we'll watch today is our smoke forecast. We have smoke burning from wildfires in western Colorado that has started to pour into the sky over the Denver metro area, so noticing maybe a little more moderate to heavy smoke in the Denver area out into eastern Colorado throughout the day today, with, of course, the heaviest smoke being out west, where we're seeing those fires originate. That smoke is likely to linger through Thursday. Western Colorado is under critical fire weather concerns and the dry weather and dry lightning are contributing to that fire danger. Temperatures are staying hot for the western slope on Wednesday, lingering in the highs of upper-90s, whereas in Denver is going to be a little cooler; it will be in the low- to mid-80s, due to a cold front bringing. Wednesday night, the Denver area could dip into the low 60s with a few lingering showers early on before a mostly cloudy night,. Thursday afternoon, Denver is expected to return to the mid-80s. It will be a partly cloudy day with some more afternoon storm chances, but we're not tracking severe weather going into Thursday.

By and Naureen S Malik Save New York City and the eastern US will sweat through another round of hot and sticky weather Wednesday and Thursday, a forecast that has prompted an emergency alert from the nation's largest power grid. In Manhattan's Central Park, Wednesday's high is forecast to reach 88F (31C), but when humidity is factored it will feel closer to 95F. That's enough for the National Weather Service to issue a heat advisory there, as well as for Philadelphia and Boston. Air quality in New York is expected to be unhealthy for sensitive groups.
