Tropical storm threatens flooded Central America

GUATEMALA CITY: At least 14 people were killed by flooding and landslides from heavy rain across the Caribbean basin, as Tropical Storm Matthew lashed water-logged Central America Saturday.

Central America alone is in the mid of one of the most intense rainy seasons in the past 60 years. Flooding and landslides have killed more than 300 people, left tens of thousands homeless and caused billions of dollars in damage in recent months, officials said.
