Tropical Storm Chantal has been downgraded to a tropical depression but is raising concerns of flash flooding in central North Carolina and south-central Virginia.

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.

Homes, businesses and hundreds of roads have been flooded in central North Carolina after rounds of heavy rain from Tropical Depression Chantal washed out streets, sent rivers into major flood stage and prompted water rescues Sunday.
