Texas and New York Face Renewed Flood Threat With Downpours on the Way
Monday has begun with one round of rain in Central Texas, which will likely be followed by another later tonight, said Bryan Jackson, a forecaster with the US Weather Prediction Center. On Sunday, recovery efforts in the region were paused as the flood risk rose more than a week after devastating deluges killed at least 130 people and left dozens missing.

The Flash-Flood Era Is Here, and We're Not Ready
New York City's subway system is mainly known for moving millions of riders every day and scaring the US Treasury Secretary. But every so often it also becomes the world's least-popular water park. Instagram was rife this week with unnerving videos of subway riders watching high waters churn outside their train cars after a brief but biblical downpour dumped more than 2 inches of rain in less than an hour on Monday, overwhelming the city's drains and turning subway stations into raging rivers. What might have been a mundane summer rainstorm at one time led to flooding that killed at least two people, destroyed property and snarled travel across three states.

Cooler temps in Twin Cities as rain moves out Wednesday
Wednesday will be a wet one in the Twin Cities, with showers and storms continuing through the morning and another chance for moisture in the afternoon. There will be a lull in the rain after about 10 a.m. before another chance arises before dinner time, then the system will fully depart in the evening. Nearly three-quarters of an inch of rain was measured at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport over the last 24 hours, and that total should continue to climb. Highs will be much cooler behind the front, with temperatures topping out around 70. Thursday and Friday will bring dry skies and mild temperatures. We'll have another shot at rain late Friday into Saturday. Temperatures will climb back into the 80s over the weekend, and next week will be even warmer.
