A deputy sheriff tried to rescue the man, according to the sheriff\u2019s office, but \u201cwas caught in a powerful current and became trapped in a life-threatening situation.\u201d The deputy was transported to the hospital, and the man died at the scene, the sheriff\u2019s office said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">A second person died in neighboring Lincoln County when their vehicle was caught in floodwaters, an Oklahoma Highway Patrol spokeswoman, Sarah Stewart, <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/severe-weather-pennsylvania-electrocuted-a92cf8d973f8992b6672b1fed75424d2\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">told The Associated Press<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-1\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Parts of central and southern Oklahoma received up to eight inches of rain on Tuesday and Wednesday, with up to six inches falling in parts of Texas. The National Weather Service said areas in southwestern Oklahoma and across the Red River into Arkansas were expected to receive more than an inch of rain, and some spots just north of the river could get over two inches on Thursday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Rainfall could come down at a rate of one to two inches per hour, which would easily overwhelm the already soaked ground.
