Chantal brought heavy, flooding rain and dangerous beach conditions to the Carolinas over the weekend, setting off life-threatening flash flooding Sunday in central parts of North Carolina that killed at least one person and prompted dozens of rescues.

Dozens of residents needed to be rescued from rising water, and hundreds of roads were closed as the storm moved over the central part of North Carolina.

At least two people were killed in North Carolina after Tropical Depression Chantal caused severe flooding. North Carolina Gov. Josh Stein visited Alamance County on Tuesday following the deadly storm.
