M.Wright35 min ago

Helene is now a post-tropical cyclone over Kentucky, but the storm brought torrential rain to Ocean City, Maryland on Friday night.

Doppler radar had estimated between 3 to 6 inches of rain fell in a short amount of time, leading to flash flooding in parts of the Del-Mar-Va peninsula.

Yesterday, flooding hit the beach town, which is experiencing a surge in population thanks to the Ocean Calling Music festival.
