Tropical Storm Chantal is expected to produce heavy rainfall across portions of the coastal plain of the Carolinas through Monday. Storm total rainfall of 2 to 4 inches, with local amounts up to 6 inches, is expected. This rainfall will result in an elevated risk for flash flooding.

Located about 150 miles south-southeast of the Charleston, South Carolina, Chantal was producing sustained winds of 40 mph and moving north toward the coast leading to a Tropical Storm warning as of 8 a.m., according to the National Hurricane Center.

Heavy rainfall will produce torrential rates of 3 to 4 inches per hour across Florida, leading to flooding in some areas, with local totals possibly reaching double digits.
