 Southeast Texas is reeling from a storm that dropped up to 16-inches of rain in some areas. Authorities had to rescue several people from boats, including a four-year-old boy. The rain forced the cancellation of some Memorial Day events, stalled cars and caused water to rise three inches in a few homes. The National Weather Service says Eastern Chambers County received up to 16-inches in a 24-hour period. Eastern Harris County was hit with up to 12-inches in a six-hour period. There was minor flooding in Houston and stalled cars could be seen along several streets and freeways. ©MMVI, The Associated Press. All Rights Reserved.
