US authorities reclaimed four more bodies from Texas waters, adding to the growing death toll inflicted by record-setting storms that are submerging highways and flooding homes. At least 28 people have been killed nationwide in the storms, 24 of them in Texas and at least 11 are still missing in that southern State. More than 17.8 centimeters of rain fell overnight from thunderstorms that stalled over Dallas, which is in its wettest month ever recorded, at 40.8 centimeters. The National Weather Service reports rainfall records have been smashed across Texas from Corpus Christi along the Gulf of Mexico to Gainesville near the Oklahoma border.
