Emergency crews carry out water rescues as flooding hits Tennessee and Georgia in ABC News' November 5 edition of World News Tonight with David Muir. The report captures communities facing another dangerous bout of rain, not simply an isolated weather emergency.

"Call it the 100-year rain or flood, and we've had two in three months," Chief Michael Earley says in the segment. ABC reports dozens of water rescues across the South, while its weather coverage follows severe storms moving toward the Northeast.

The flooding report begins about fourteen minutes into a broadcast that opens with the stock-market sell-off and fears about the pace of AI data-center construction. It also includes a separate report from Pierre Thomas on a Des Moines postal worker arrested and charged with attempted murder after authorities say she shot coworkers inside a sorting facility.

The full broadcast drew about 1.1 million views since yesterday, the largest audience among ABC News' new uploads over that period.
