Hundreds of flights and train schedules were cancelled on Wednesday, plunging North and South Carolina in a travel chaos hours ahead of fast-approaching Hurricane Florence, as residents gridlocked the roads with vehicles in an attempt to flee the region.

The National Hurricane Center said that the storm is set to make landfall in the two states as a major hurricane on Friday morning, will bring a disastrous amount of rainfall, causing a strom surge and inland flooding. Millions of residents are evacuating from the coastal regions of the states, as the North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper said that Hurricane Florence is a storm the likes of which the residents have never seen before. "This storm is ... nothing like you've ever seen. Even if you've ridden out storms before, this one is different. Don't bet your life on riding out a monster," Cooper said.
