Point Pleasant Floods Shut Down Town | Charleston News

Point Pleasant took a brutal hit from torrential rains that dumped 6 to 8 inches in hours, triggering catastrophic flooding that shut down roads, driveways, and even yards—making daily life nearly impossible. Schools closed, businesses like Piggly Wiggly stayed shuttered, and residents like Robin Pearson struggled to reach essential jobs. For lifelong resident Cheryl Stephens, it was the most severe flooding she’s ever seen in her 68 years there.
