The ongoing heavy rainfall poses a severe risk of flash flooding, particularly in urban areas and regions with saturated ground. Central and south-central Texas, including Houston and San Antonio, are experiencing significant impacts, with roads washed out and vehicles stranded. Emergency responders have conducted multiple water rescues, and one fatality has been reported. Coastal areas may also face gusty winds and minor coastal flooding. The risk extends eastward to Louisiana, Mississippi, and parts of Alabama and Georgia, with localized flooding possible. The situation is life-threatening in some areas, especially where rainfall rates are intense and prolonged.
