At Least 4 Dead from Hurricane Florence
Hurricane Florence has been downgraded to a tropical storm, and has left at least four people dead after it made landfall Friday on North Carolina's coast bringing damaging winds, heavy rain and a massive storm surge.
Police in Wilmington say a mother and baby were killed when a tree fell on a house. Another woman in Pender County, NC, died from a heart attack after calling emergency services, as paramedics could not reach her because of fallen trees. The North Carolina governor's office said a fourth person was killed while plugging in a generator.

A gas pump lies on there ground after strong winds in Wilmington, N.C., toppled it after Hurricane Florence made landfall Friday, Sept. 14, 2018.
The National Hurricane Center said Florence's winds have slowed to tropical storm strength, and is moving slowly inland in southeastern North Carolina with sustained winds of 110 kilometers per hour (68 mph) and higher gusts. The storm is expected to continue on that path and begin lashing eastern South Carolina Friday night and Saturday.

The storm's movement, not its strength, has forecasters and officials worried.
Florence is moving inland at 10 kilometers per hour (6 mph) — giving it more time to churn, suck up water, batter the coast, and bring massive amounts of rain inland.
Hundreds of people in North Carolina have been rescued from rising water. In Craven County, NC, authorities say they received more than 150 telephone calls to rescue people in the historic town of New Bern because water had entered their homes.
