A massive cross-country storm is set to impact more than 120 million people across 35 states, bringing severe weather, heavy rain and strong winds across the Central and Southern Plains before moving toward the East Coast later this week.

Schools remain closed today, Nov. 4, in a few Florida counties after almost 2 feet of rain in some areas brought "catastrophic flooding" to the state this week.

The area has experienced an historic rain event that has triggered widespread flash flooding, leaving two people dead.
