Rob Lowe, family rescued from French vacation home

Rob Lowe's vacation in France took a scary turn on Wednesday, June 25 because of one very bad storm.

The 50-year-old actor and his family had to be rescued from their vacation home in Grasse, France, after heavy downpours caused frightening floods.
"That's the first floor of our house submerged," Lowe's son Johnny captioned an Instagram photo that has since been removed. "Scariest hour or so of my life."
Lowe shared another photo of the rapidly moving water, which was "right outside the house," he wrote. "Was twice as high at the worst, just before sunrise."

Local officials told People magazine that the Lowes had just experienced "the biggest storm of the year."
"Water rising like that can be terrifying," one official said to the magazine. "There's only one rescue station in Grasse, and this storm required assistance from several other regional units. We were called out on a lot of emergency rescues on that day."
