STORYLINE:
At least one boy was killed and a woman injured on Sunday in floodwaters in Texas, where more than one-third of counties have issued disaster declarations during the past week due to heavy rainfalls that continue to pound the state.
As of Sunday evening, more than 2.1 million people across Texas, including the Houston area, were under the flood watch.
Thousands of people have been displaced and an estimated 1,000 people, together with hundreds of pets, have been rescued from flooded homes and roads since last week.
In a swath from central Texas to the Dallas-Fort Worth area in the north, storms brought as much as 9 inches (23 cm) of rain in six to eight hours Sunday overnight, said National Weather Service meteorologist Matt Stalley.
