Deadly Flooding Strikes West Virginia, Texas Amid Ongoing Rescue Efforts

Northern West Virginia experienced historic and deadly flash flooding over the weekend due to torrential rain, resulting in at least six deaths and multiple people missing. The flooding caused extensive damage, including mud and debris covering homes and infrastructure, with reports of cars swept away in Wheeling Creek and an apartment building partially collapsing. Rescue and cleanup efforts continue, with dive crews searching for missing individuals and fire departments addressing new hazards such as basement fires triggered by electrical issues. Residents have shown resilience and community support amid the devastation, with neighbors offering aid and comfort. This severe weather event follows a storm system that also caused deadly flooding in San Antonio, Texas, killing at least 13 people there last week. Authorities remain focused on recovery and safety measures in the affected areas.
