Sally will soak the Southeast with torrential rains today after its floodwaters swallowed up homes, downed power lines and turned streets into rivers in Florida and Alabama when the storm blew ashore as a Category 2 hurricane early Wednesday.

Triple-I’s Mark Friedlander gives an update in the video above.

Colorado State University’s latest two-week hurricane forecast calls for “above-normal activity” through the end of September.

CSU calls for above-normal Atlantic #hurricane activity w/ next 2-week forecast (9/16-9/29). Combination of current storms & hurricane-enhancing seasonal & subseasonal conditions are likely to lead to continued active period. #Sally #Teddy #Paulette #Vicky https://t.co/alMZIXegEH pic.twitter.com/XTUd18f76l
