    <p>HOUSTON – A baby, who appears to sleeping peacefully in a blue carrier and wrapped in a blanket, was among many of the harrowing rescues from the catastrophic floodwaters of Hurricane Harvey.</p> <p>Harris County <span class="redactor-unlink">Sheriff Ed Gonzalez, meanwhile, today</span> filmed a short segment at the Eastex Freeway and Interstate 610 to illustrate the perilous conditions of the roadways. </p> <p>The National Weather Service shares in a recent Tweet the latest on flood status, adding a reminder to locals to not drive into or near flood waters for spectating. "Rescues are underway and do not need additional obstructions," the agency tweeted.</p> <p>See all below ...</p> <p>The storm that has claimed at least eight lives by this afternoon has been called epic, unprecedented and devastating, and its punishing effects harshly linger. First responders and good Samaritans are searching neighborhoods by boat to look for thousands still stranded in their homes, and mass evacuations are underway while Harvey regroups for another landfall on Tuesday.<br /></p> <p>Harvey, now a tropical storm, has dropped up to 40 inches of rain in some parts of Houston and surrounding cities. Forecasters say more is on the way, which means this storm's totality could be more than 50 inches of rain when it's all said and done. </p> <p><br /></p> <figure class="r-embed"><iframe width="590" height="332" src="https://launch.newsinc.com/?type=VideoPlayer/Single&amp;widgetId=1&amp;trackingGroup=69016&amp;playlistId=19132&amp;siteSection=ndninc_hom_non_fro&amp;videoId=32893723" frameborder="no" scrolling="no" noresize="noresize" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" allowfullscreen="" webkitallowfullscreen="" mozallowfullscreen=""></iframe></figure><p><strong></strong></p> <figure class="r-embed"><iframe src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/video.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2FHCSOTexas%2Fvideos%2F10154981637387549%2F&amp;show_text=1&amp;width=560" width="560" height="562" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="true"></iframe></figure><p><strong><br /></strong></p> <p><strong></strong></p> <figure class="r-embed"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en">Want to check the gauges in your area?
