Central U.S. Flooding Triggers Water Rescues as Heat Builds; Red Flag Warnings Span the Southwest; CISA Flags Two Actively Exploited Vulnerabilities

A slow-moving storm system drove roughly two dozen flash floods and water rescues across Arkansas, Kansas, Missouri, and Oklahoma on June 8, with flood watches stretching into the Tennessee Valley and severe storms threatening the central Plains.
