(CNN)At least five people, including a mother and her infant, have died in North Carolina as Tropical Storm Florence slowly moved from the Tar Heel State into South Carolina, officials said Friday.

After coming ashore in North Carolina as a Category 1 hurricane, Florence was downgraded to a tropical storm Friday afternoon and trudged into South Carolina as night came.
Two people died in Wilmington after a tree fell on their house, the city's police department said.
"WPD can confirm the first two fatalities of Hurricane #Florence in Wilmington. A mother and infant were killed when a tree fell on their house," police tweeted Friday afternoon. "The father was transported to (New Hanover Regional Medical Center) with injuries."

He will probably say that far fewer people than the "corrupt Dems" are reporting. He will then go on to congratulate himself on doing an A+++ job.

Time is a funny thing. There is always too much of it, except when you need it the most. Then there is never enough.

Let me guess, the families consisted of healthy and able bodied families who could have left but opted to ride it out despite being in mandatory evacuation zones?

It's not easy to leave everything you own behind.

Picture of the massive trees through the people's house is crazy. Don't know if that site has it but the one I looked at last night did. Looked like most of the house was good which is crazy. Just that one room or area.

Yea I've seen the pic.

There is a huge ass pine tree right next to my room.

It could fall my way or it might not.

It's just the chance one takes.

Dying is literally the easiest thing anyone can do. It requires no effort, no prerequisites, no planning, no skills, no money, and has an indefinite amount of time in which it can be accomplished.

It also sucks and people typically spend a great deal of energy to avoid doing it, but sometimes you just don't have enough energy.

Looks like they've left one way or another.
