UPDATE: Authorities in North and South Carolina said Saturday that the death toll related to Florence had climbed to 11, as crews rescued people from rising waters caused by record amounts of rainfall along the coast and inland. More than 2 feet of rain had fallen in places, with an additional 1½ feet possible in the two-state region from the slow-moving tropical storm through Sunday.

Amid growing concerns about Hurricane Florence lingering off the Atlantic coast, President Donald Trump Thursday morning rejected the official death count resulting from the devastating hurricane that struck Puerto Rico last year. The president said that the reported number of people who died in the U.S. territory due to Hurricane Maria was inflated by Democrats, who he claimed included unrelated deaths.

Hurricane Florence weakened Thursday morning as winds and rain started hitting the coast of North Carolina, but that hasn’t eased the concerns of forecasters. Winds dropped from a high of 140 mph to 110 mph, reducing Florence from a Category 4 to a Category 2 storm. But it’s not the wind from a hurricane that poses the largest threat—it’s the water.

More than 1 million people could find themselves on the road as South Carolina starts evacuating its entire coastline at noon today in preparation for Hurricane Florence. Virginia and North Carolina are also evacuating low-lying coastal areas ahead of what could be the worst storm to hit the region in decades.

New York and New Jersey launched investigations Friday into the Roman Catholic Church’s handling of sex abuse allegations. Three weeks after a grand jury report found rampant sexual abuse of children by priests in Pennsylvania since the 1940s, Catholic leaders in New York and New Jersey said they would cooperate with authorities. The New York Archdiocese confirmed it received subpoenas and vowed to work with state Attorney General Barbara Underwood.
