It never became a tropical depression, but Potential Tropical Cyclone Eight brought rain totals like North Carolina hasn't seen in hundreds of years.

Parts of southeastern North Carolina were still underwater Tuesday after a storm that wasn't quite organized enough to get a name dropped historic amounts of rain on an area that has suffered floods of a lifetime at least four other times in the past 25 years.

The storm did flood several blocks of Carolina Beach, North Carolina, and bring widespread wind gusts over 40 mph. North Carolina's governor urged people to stay off the roads in stormy conditions.
