The Nation : Floods Continue in Texas
High water forced more evacuations as rain continued in waterlogged Texas, where two people died in weather-related accidents and Lake Texoma on the Texas-Oklahoma border threatened to pour over its spillway. The state has been plagued by thunderstorms for nearly two weeks.

Tornado watches were issued in Virginia, West Virginia, North Carolina, the District of Columbia and Maryland.
