CNN
Fred has been downgraded to a post-tropical cyclone, but the storm still poses a danger for parts of the US.
After causing heavy flooding in Haywood County, North Carolina -- where 35 people were unaccounted for Wednesday evening -- the system is heading east-northeast, according to CNN meteorologist Michael Guy. And as it moves into the Mid-Atlantic and then the New England region, heavy rain and isolated tornadoes are still possible. Flash flood watches are in effect for Pennsylvania, New York, Vermont, New Hampshire and portions of southern Maine.More Related News
