Remnants of Bill Still Causing Flooding in Texas

NACOGDOCHES (AP/Staff) – Although the center of a tropical depression has moved into Oklahoma, a trailing band of the storm system continues to bring rain and flooding to portions of Texas. Police in Nacogdoches said Thursday that residents are being told to evacuate an apartment complexes along a swollen creek. The Navidad River near the Texas coast is flowing nearly six feet above flood stage while the Trinity River in Dallas by Saturday is projected to flow nine feet above flood stage. The National Weather Service says the tail end of the depression is extending down into Central Texas and onto the San Antonio area. Much of the state received 3 to 6 inches of rain, but some areas southwest of Houston saw 8 to 13 inches.
