. >> now to kevin corriveau in the studio - what is the weather, kevin? >> we have rain passing through, it's going to be houston texas and louisiana seeing the big problem, as well as tomorrow. you can see on the radar most of the rain is pushing towards the east. houston is on the edge so they should stop the rain within the next 2-3 hours. we are looking at heavy rain along the border. this is some of the totals in the last five days, what did it show you there. 21 inches of rain, an area between dallas and houston, 9.5. just under a foot of rain. and we'll see more rain over parts of louisiana, as well as into mississippi. over the next several days. right now we are looking at flash flood warnings along the area as well as the central area. flash flooding is occurring, or it's imminent. if you look at the flood warnings and the flood watches, we are looking at most of louisiana, towards mississippi. over the next 72 hours. a couple of hot spots, especially here in parts of mississippi, where we can see 10-12 inches of rain. it include hattiesburg for

let's bring in kevin corriveau. n you heard robert talk about the dangers of those dams breaking. how serious is that right now? >> right now, it's very serious, because the rain only stopped yesterday. the rain was inland hundreds of miles, and it is going to take a long time for that water to go towards the coast. it was about 5:00 am when all of any rain ended for north and south carolina, so now we're talking about nice conditions, and those will last we think for the next seven to ten days. so that is very, very good news there. what is not good news is all of these flood warnings still in effect for south carolina as well as north carolina, and still around columbia, what is going to be happening is we did have record-breaking rain in columbia, and the region, that water has to make its way down towards the coast. it is not just going to be soaked into the soil. so what is going to be happening is we're going to see these cresting rivers slowly make their way down towards the southeast, we'll see some crest at

. >>> now to our meteorologist kevin corriveau with the latest on the weather picture. >> the rain endeds morning across the carolinas. the big problem is that standing water and also what the rivers are going to do over the next several days as most of that flood water starts to make its way down towards the coast. as you can see we were still looking at floodern waing -- warnings in effect. those in the southeast are going to stay in place probably all the way to sunday, because we are looking at these rivers not cresting until we get towards the weekend. that is now long it is going to take for all of this water to make its way down the black river and others. so we'll be watching this very carefully as communities are going to be effected. the rain totals are amazing. we saw 26 inches at mount pleasant. some locations saw up to 30, and charleston, about 23.6 inches there. the rest of the day will be beautiful, sunny skies as well as temperatures into the low 70s, and we do think for the next seven days, the eastern seaboard is looking quite nice. we don't expect to see any rain in th

kevin corriveau has the latest on the weather picture. >> the flooding rains are about to stop but the flooding on the ground is going to take days if not weeks before we finally see that to clear up. right now you can see what you call the water vapor shot. the association of area, that is we are about to say most of that rain begin to taper off. the heavier rain though is going to be on the southern coast of north carolina and that could actually go till tomorrow. i want you to see what we have seen in terms of storm damage. the flooding has caused quite a bit of damage along the highways. greenville to columbia and also in charleston. in the next day or so this is what we're expecting to happen. this area of low pressure is going to be making its way to the threang. the rain iend of the week. areas of the carolinas are going to be cresting, as well as the water moving down towards the coast so we're going to be watching that very carefully. >> storms off the coast brought strong wind and waves along the new jersey shore, coast guard rescued a man knocked off his personal water craft

and kevin corriveau joins us now. even if doesn't make landfall, it will have a significant impact. >> meteorologist: we'll see the circulation, it will bring moisture towards the east coast, and you can see some of it happening right now. for the recovery search efforts tomorrow, things are going to be much better as that system is now moving out. we're still looking at a category three. we're still looking at 127 mph winds. the trough is headed more towards the east than it was six hours ago. right now actually mermaid da is starting to enter into that cone of uncertainty. we'll watch that carefully as we go into the beginning of the weekend. in terms of the rain and flooding we've seen eight inches of rain in the last 28 hours for parts of myrtle beach. what is going to happen with all this flooding is that we've had the circulation down to the south. we have the high pressure to the north. that causes this funneling affect across much of the eastern seaboard where we have coastal flooding to the north. we also hav

kevin corriveau is here with a look at what we can expect in the u.s. it looks like we may not get a direct hit, but it will affect the west coast. >> that's right, we will not see the land fall, but the coastal flooding. let's look at what is happening on the satellite. over the last 24 hours, the storm moved slowly across the bahamas, they have taken the direct hit with this category 4 storm. warns are up there, they'll stay up through tomorrow, through free port. i think n.a.s.a. and free port will get out of it lightly as the storm makes its way towards the north. probably tomorrow. this is what we are seeing, a category 4 makingize way to the north. the track is over to the east. the flooding along the east coast. what will happen is with the turning of the storm there'll be a lot of water pushing up the coast. probably going for the next tour days and we expect to see flooding across the region, rain is happening across the east coast, so that is adding to the flood situation, if you look at the flood warnings and watches, we talk all the way up h

let's bring in meteorologist kevin corriveau where report was it's stop raining, but in others areas there is still rain. >> meteorologist: from october 1st all the way through yesterday morning, we'll get the update on this in the next hour, but if you can halleluiah 24 inches just yesterday morning it had been raining for the last 24 hours. these numbers are going it to go up six to eight inches by the time we get the newer updates. for that area of water it will take some locations a week to two weeks for that flooding water to go down. this is the area of low pressure that has been bringing in the moisture from the atlantic partially from joaquin. you can see that moisture from the eastern parts of south carolina there. i want to go in on the radar to show you what is happening right now. down here towards charleston they're in the dryer area. up here towards columbia, the rain is beginning to taper off there. we're still seeing heavy rain showers up here towards whimmi towards which willing ton. we'll still have floodwaters in the region for the next day or so. these rivers are

rain eased up in the carolinas, bud flood warns are in effect across the region, meteorologist kevin corriveau has the latest. >> the rain may have ended. the threat of flooding will continue for tomorrow and the rest of the week. you can see an area of low pressure, the instability for the moisture, pushing to the atlantic. there's less clouds from south and north carolina. this is the radar. the rain is starting to go lighter. we say see a few slight showers. the heaviest rain has gone. i want to take you and show you where we have seen most of the rain activity. it was coming in from the south-east, altogether the way from charleston to columbia. rain titles over 28 inches in some locations, and it turned. and we had the easterly component of the wind. the big threat across the area now that the rain is ending is the residual flooding across the areas. many of the rivers and streams will hit moderate and major flood stages later in the week as most of the water makes its way to the coast. so a lot of the places are saturated, they are in danger and we'll watch it carefully. here are the 4-d

let's check in with kevin corriveau with more on the weather. it was just last weekend we had the same problem. that because of the remnants pushing to texas, because of flooding across the region. we are seeing a similar situation over the last 48 hours. that's what this is a radar over the last 48 hours. as it developed, pushing it fro the south-west, coming in parts of san francisco and austin, where some of the locations saw about 10 inches of rain. over a foot of rain fell in just 12-14 hours across that area. in the last few days we have seen about 12 tornados across the region. some of the most recent have been through eastern texas and louisiana. and now the recent tornado we have seen is in parts of mississippi. those flood watches and warnings are in effect, and now the storm is making its way towards the east. we are looking at louisiana, mississippi and alabama, seeing the biggest threat tonight and tomorrow. look at the slide there. it's a severe storm line that is pushing through. we need to watch it carefully. we have tornado watc

kevin corriveau is here with the weather. >> well, the second round of rain in the carolinas have stopped. but we're still look at significant flooding. three inches of rain, didn't help the flooding. columbia to charleston, myrtle beach and, flood warnings are in effect. these aren't going to go anywhere very fast. i want to take you to the northwest, we saw quite a bit of rain through the area. so much remain that in tacoma, take a look at what happened at stadium high school, where the water really was flowing down the bleachers, onto the field, because of the very aheavy rain situation there. what happened was, down the street the drains plugged up and the rain had nowhere else to go. and of course the field saw not only rain but quite a bit of mud too. it's going to take a little bit of time for all that to be cleaned up. well, the system that caused that rain is now pushing into the northern plains. you could also see that frontal boundary, a lot of winds and cooler air coming in behind this but a big drop in temperature where we saw into the 90s later today, tomorrow those temperat

kevin corriveau is here now with more on the weather. it's a blip on the weather. for memorial day. it is preparing. it did what it was supposed to do, staying out of the floodwaters. this is what we are looking out. we see the storm towards the east. houston here, galveston to the south, and you see on the edge of that rain, take a look at some of the totals. first of all, for the next five days, take a look. we are talking about over 21 inches of rain falling. in the last 24 hours here, 11 inches, and hustan s-- houston, it's over towards louisiana. probably we'll see the biggest problem over the next 24 hours. over the next 24-48 hours, rain showers are pushing through. louisiana is covered in rain. it's across that region. we are looking at warnings in effect from eastern texas to central parts of louisiana, dangerous situations, we are looking at flood warnings and flash flood watches in effect for large portions for much of the south. all the way over, towards alabama and into parts of florida. in the next 72 hours we'll see heavy rain, still some in eastern texas, we do think

. >>> welcome back, let's check in with kevin corriveau, for more on the weather. >> we are looking at better skies across parts of the carolinas, finally we had rain this weekend. that has pushed out into the atlantic, but take a look at aerials that came out of george town county, many are under flood warnings, and they are still in effect for most of the area, anywhere from columbia to charleston to parts of myrtle beach as well. they'll stay in effect indefinitely until the water starts to recede. some of the rivers are seeing minor and major flooding cross them. we expect the rivers to come down as well. i want to take you here to the western side of the state. towards the north-west. look at the rain that came through. and then take a look at what happened at the high school, the water, because of the flooding, started coming down. the bleachers and then the field started filling up. one of the problems here was the roadways leading to the stadium, while the leaves covered a lot of drains, it caused a problem on the field. there'll be a major clean-up going on here. it wasn't jus

kevin corriveau has more on the weather system and the remains of hurricane joaquin. >> i want to update you on joaquin. down in the bahamas we saw this as a category 4 spinning in one area. the video that has come out of this particular region we're only getting aerials at the moment. that is our crooked island, specifically, long island, san salvador, some reporters are saying that some communities have been obliterated across that area. and also the club med we also heard in san salvador was public health destroyed. was completely destroyed. for joaquin right now, we're looking at the storm just pushing just to the northwest of the bahamas, category 2 is where we're seeing i.t. will come down. power outage across that region but joaquin was partially responsible for fueling all of the rain here across much of the carolinas. you'll also know right here across florida we have an area of low pressure that has helped pooul lot opull a lot of that me across the area. over the last 24 hours we've seen massive flooding reports over the region and definitely not over yet. take a look at some

kevin corriveau joins us with more. it's one of the strongest storms the atlantic has seen in years. >> that's right. since 2010. this storm promised to be an interesting one at that. that's the look from space, this is the most current satellite, pushing through southern apartments. all affected the most. some trapped in their home, 5-10 food storm surges in that area. this is what we expect to see over the next couple of hours. the storm has been coming down to the south-west. we do expect it to make a turn to the north. that will probably come up at the 11 o'clock hour. most of the bahamas is under a hurricane warning, and we'll still see flooding across the region. >> let's hope it stays away from the east coast. >> after days of fighting, government forces say they have retaken two major sites from houthi rebels. it is a strategic shipping passage way connecting the red sea to the ocean. saudi-led used air force and air strikes to support forces. >> translation: we'll advance, god willing, houthis will see us soon

kevin corriveau is here with more. >> we are watching still a few showers across the region.ike what we had seen this past weekend. and the culprit of the situation, the storm is now moving out towards the atlantic. i want to show you where some of those heavier rain showers are right now. there are a few showers pushing through. they are very, very light here. the heavier rains are across the coast of north carolina. and some of the totals are up to 18 or 19 inches. i expect we'll see maybe one to two inches of rain at the most through tomorrow morning. these are some of those rain tota totals mount pleasant, i want to show you aerial coverage we have across charleston and the floods in that region. they had seen record-breaking amounts of rain for charleston as well as columbia, as well. as we go through the next couple of days, we're going to be seeing some very heavy rain off of the coast, but for them, the flood warnings will stay in effect at least through tomorrow. back to you. >> thank you. >>> the u.s. coast guard says that a cargo ship that went missing in hurricane

let's bring in kevin corriveau. >> good morning to you both. yesterday when we talked about this, we didn't expect the fire in texas to expand like it did. we are talking 2,000 acres right now. i want to go deeper and show you where we are talking about. here is the city of austin, we are talking here towards the county. you see the area that you are talking about. it quadrupled. look at the video coming out from the area, from yesterday. we are talking about major wildfires going on in this area. they are fighting it best they can. the weather across the region, it's into the 90s. humidity is down to 10-15% at the height of the day. it will stay like that as we go through friday. we'll not see much until we get towards the weekend. right now, temperatures are not bad. of course compared to yesterday we are talking warmer than we were. this afternoon, still into the mid 90s. anywhere from san francisco up to dallas. i said it yesterday i expect the area to increase it coverage. i agrees that to happen this afternoon. tomorrow the temperatures c

. >> kevin corriveau, what's the forecast? >> things are going to be clearing up for houston very quickly but for the rest of eastern texas, very heavy rain across that region. our focus is going to go towards louisiana and mississippi, very, very heavy rain there and flooding as well as these thunderstorms where you see the red is popping up with the echoes. we are now looking at some severe weather and the potential for tornadoes in the area. i'll show you that in just a second. first of all let's talk about the flooding threat here across eastern texas as well as louisiana. this is going to continue for flash flood warnings all the way to 2:00 a.m. central time so we're watching that. but i do think the flash flood warnings will starts to move more towards the east. look at the flood warnings encompassincompassing louisiana, mississippi and florida. these will stay in effect for next two days, very heavy rain across that region. i did mention tornadoes. we have tornado watches and warnings in effect for parts of new orleans

kevin corriveau is here with more. >> we didn't need the more rain that came, starting last night. we thought we'd get a bigger break last monday. take a look at the satellite. you can see across the united states there's two places where it's raining, up here to the north-west and down here in the carolina. take a closer look. the area of low pressure that we are talking about, you can see that circumstance u lights that has been -- circulation that has been pushing through georgia, produced rain across the region, particularly the western part of columbia and the. and we have seen between 1-3 inches of rain just in the last 24 hours: we do think that later in the evening. they will be watching and flash flood warnings are, in effect, because of that heavy rain. there are four counties, as well as flood warnings to the south. those flood warnings are associated with rivers. we are talking about the river, that are still in major flood warning across the area. the amount of rain we expect to see may be up to an inch. >> thank you very much. randall pinkston is here with a look at w

kevin corriveau is tracking for us. the models do not look good. >> they do not look good. our existing flooding across the region which we've had, you can see, this rain here has nothing to do with joaquin, all has to do with the gulf of mexico. topsail north carolina, coastal flooding will continue as we go through at least the next five days. rip tides are also a major problem there. then very quickly i want to take you all the way up to portland, maine. we saw rain here across the region where it's still raining, watches and warnings are still in effect. water was as high as some people's windshields, a very dangerous situation there. towards the baum mast bahamas, e joaquin has been upgraded from category 1 to category 2, 105 miles an hour, we have hurricane warnings for that's sa that's ne freeport. categories 2 towards a category 3 storm out towards the atlantic. we think it's going to be a category 3 hurricane, and it's tricky where the storm goes. notice cone of uncertainty and how wide it is. but what the national hurricane center says right now, it could be going

. >> let's check in with kevin corriveau an what is known as fall. >> in the northeast and south, itbeautiful today for a holiday. it's not going to last, though. we have this area of low pressure moving through the northern plains with a cold front associated with it. closer in, you can see what's happening here. here the area that's turning. this is the area of low pressure. this here where the clouds are is the cold front. we are not picking up any rain, so it's really just a difference in temperature, warmer towards the southeast, colder towards the northwest. this is what we expect to see today. the cold front's going to extend through the great lakes to the accident. we don't expect to see rain. as it moves towards the east, it's going to start to pick up more moisture out of the gulf. on tuesday, for many cities here along the eastern seaboard, we do expect to see more clouds and showers and then once it goes through on wednesday, then those temperatures are going to drop. for boston, you're way above average today, normally 63. you're going to be seeing 75 degrees, an absolut

kevin corriveau here with a look at what next to expect in this very rough weather we've been happening. >> a few more hours of rain. things will get better, let's look at what is happening. there's two places that we are looking at weather. that is up here to the north-west, and we are looking at down to carolina, where that is the last place that we need weather. the rain stopped last month, and then, of course, began last night. als you can see here, closer in, the area of low pressure, it's moving here towards the east. we are picking up heavy rain showers, with some of those is rated cells that are moving through parts of the carolinas, and in the last 24 hours, we have seen one to 3 inches of rain, and because it is raining across parts of the area, we could possibly go over that to 3.5 inches, maybe three and three-quarter inches. flash flood warnings are in effect. we have four countries. to the west -- four counties. to the west of columbia and to the south, we are talking about flood warnings, and that is really because of the rivers down there, that are now going through a ma

kevin corriveau has more. >> reporter: we're talking about a category 4 hurricane, which happened today. but yesterday, we went from a category 1 to category 3 in just 6 hours. we're looking at a well-defined eye right here, and this island in the bahamas is called long island. and it's pushing over the southern part right now, smack dab in the center of the bahamas. if you're in freeport, you're seeing the rain come in, but not the full effect of the storm right now. we're waiting for -- which has not yet happened. here we're looking at the hurricane warnings. that will say in effect at least through the next 24, possibly 478 hours. and so this is what the national hurricane center has said at 5:00 p.m. category 4, 132 miles per hour. still moving to the southwest. and that is the big problem with this storm. and that is why we do not have a very good track as it makes its way to the north. because we need it to start moving to the north to figure out what's going to be happening as it makes its bay up parts of the eastern seaboard. over the past couple of days, we have seen it change

let's bring in meteorologist kevin corriveau. from southern california, they've been in a drought for so long, needed rain, as soon as they get it, they have disasters like this. >> it's what happens when you get too much of a good thing or too much rain in a short period of time. california is not out of the woods. we are seeing heavy rain showers here, along the border with nevada. we are going to be watching that area closely. i wanted to show you closer what we are talking about. we have rain showers up towards the north. take a look at some additional video that came out of leonea county. she walked it. this is probably not the best idea if you are ever trapped in a flash flooding situation. of course, your instincts is to get out of the car, but this could be a deadly situation. fortunately, she made it to the other side, but that water can sweep you from under your feet and take you downstream. of course we're looking at rescue everyday at that pained. for the rest of the day today, we are looking at flash flood watches st

. >> let's bring in kemp corriveau for more. kevin, it's been dry there. >> it's been very dry and stay dry. we are talking 10% to 20% humidity across the area. it's going to stay like that. our focus, even though there are wildfires in other states, as well, it's really texas today, tomorrow as well as into the end of the week that we're really going to be focusing on. we are talking just to the east and north of the capital of austin. we are seeing a lot of grass fires there and the temperatures have been well above average. this morning, we are still looking at temperatures into the low 60's, so that's good news, but later today, these temperatures are going to be soaring. you can see here, san antonio, 95 degrees, dallas at 95, austin, 96 degrees there. these temperatures are anywhere between 15-18 degrees above average. they are going to stay like that as we go through pretty much the end of the week. by saturday, temperatures come down, so we really think that the wildfire risk for central texas is going to be elevated across th
