Death toll rising from ‘historic’ Kentucky floods – BBC News

At least eight people are dead after flash flooding deluged a swathe of eastern Kentucky, and officials fear the toll will rise into "double digits".

Hundreds of homes have been wiped out by the disaster, said the state’s governor, who has declared a statewide emergency.

The National Weather Service said more flooding was possible on Friday in the Appalachian region, including West Virginia and south-west Virginia.
