Drone footage released on August 9 showed a flooded road in Liberty County, Georgia, after Storm Debby brought heavy rain.

The National Weather Service warned of heavy tropical downpours.

Debby was downgraded to a post-tropical storm, but flood watches and warnings, gale warnings, tornado watches, and wind advisories were still in place for multiple states on the East Coast.

“Rising water levels in Liberty County due to the Canoochee and Ogeechee rivers remain a concern,” the Liberty County Emergency Management Agency said. Credit: Liberty County, GA Emergency Management Agency via Storyful

Mass evacuation of Philippine villages underway after a brief but major volcanic eruption
About 87,000 people were being evacuated in a central Philippine region Tuesday a day after a volcano briefly erupted with a towering ash plume and superhot streams of gas and debris hurtling down its western slopes. The latest eruption of Mount Kanlaon on central Negros island did not cause any immediate casualties, but the alert level was raised one level, indicating further and more explosive eruptions may occur. Volcanic ash fell on a wide area, including Antique province, more than 200 kilometers (124 miles) across seawaters west of the volcano, obscuring visibility and posing health risks, Philippine chief volcanologist Teresito Bacolcol and other officials said by telephone.
