QUOTES:
"CHARLESTON, W.Va. - With flood watches in effect and the threat of
additional rain looming, emergency officials braced for more rising waters
following storms that overwhelmed streams and sewer systems and forced
dozens to find refuge on rooftops and in hastily arranged shelters.
Parts of Charleston and several rural Kanawha County suburbs suffered the
worst of Monday's storms, with more than 50 homes heavily damaged or
destroyed. County officials declared a state of emergency.
The area is already recovering from heavy rain. Last Wednesday, a storm
dumped nearly 2 1/2 inches of rain on the Charleston area in one hour,
resulting in flash flooding that destroyed several houses and forced a
nursing home to evacuate.
Several rugged counties in West Virginia got 2 to 3 inches of rain between
midnight and noon Monday. More showers and thunderstorms were expected. "
