West Virginia is currently facing severe weather conditions, with catastrophic flooding prompting the declaration of a state of emergency across all 55 counties. Flash floods have inundated homes and businesses, leading to widespread evacuations and the deployment of the National Guard to assist affected communities. Water rescues are ongoing in Upshur County as rising waters pose significant challenges. Many roads remain impassable, and power outages are affecting thousands in the region. Local officials are urging residents to stay off the roads and have initiated efforts to collect donations for victims. The governor has submitted a request for a presidential disaster declaration to further support recovery efforts.
