    	<p>Floodwaters reached the rooflines of single-story homes Monday and people could be heard pleading for help from inside as <a href="https://globalnews.ca/tag/hurricane-harvey/">Harvey</a> poured rain on the <a href="https://globalnews.ca/tag/houston/">Houston</a> area for a fourth consecutive day after a chaotic weekend of rising water and rescues.</p><p>The nation’s fourth-largest city was still largely paralyzed by one of the largest downpours in U.S. history. And there was no relief in sight from the storm that spun into Texas as a Category 4 hurricane, then parked itself over the Gulf Coast. With nearly 2 more feet of rain expected on top of the 30-plus inches (76 centimeters) in some places, authorities worried whether the worst was yet to come.</p><p class="ap-story-p"><strong>WATCH: Texas governor provides Harvey update on Monday afternoon</strong></p>			<section>

	<p>The disaster unfolded on an epic scale in one of America’s most sprawling metropolitan centers. The Houston metro area covers about 10,000 square miles, an area slightly bigger than New Jersey. It’s crisscrossed by about 1,700 miles of channels, creeks and bayous that drain into the Gulf of Mexico, about 50 miles to the southeast from downtown.</p><p>The storm is generating an amount of rain that would normally be seen only once in more than 1,000 years, said Edmond Russo, a deputy district engineer for the Army Corps of Engineers, which was concerned that floodwater would spill around a pair of 70-year-old reservoir dams that protect downtown Houston.</p><p class="ap-story-p"><strong>WATCH: Officials calling on public to aid in Harvey rescue efforts</strong></p>			<a class="story-img-link" data-displayinline-type="video" data-displayinline-stickyiframe="video_3701764" data-displayinline-ratio="16:9" data-displayinline="https://globalnews.ca/video/embed/3701764/#autoplay&#038;stickyiframe=video_3701764">

		<p>The flooding was so widespread that the levels of city waterways have either equaled or surpassed those of Tropical Storm Allison from 2001, and no major highway has been spared some overflow.</p><p>The city’s normally bustling business district was virtually deserted Monday, with emergency vehicles making up most of the traffic. Most traffic signals were out and most businesses closed.</p><p>Rescuers continued plucking people from the floodwaters. Mayor Sylvester Turner put the number rescued by police at more than 3,000. The Coast Guard said it had also rescued more than 3,000 by boat and air and was taking more than 1,000 calls her hour.</p><p>Chris Thorn was among the many volunteers still helping with the mass evacuation that began Sunday. He drove with a buddy from the Dallas area with their flat-bottom hunting boat to pull strangers out of the water.</p><p><strong>WATCH: Hurricane Harvey whips up flames on burning building near Texas coast</strong></p>			<a class="story-img-link" data-displayinline-type="video" data-displayinline-stickyiframe="video_3698042" data-displayinline-ratio="16:9" data-displayinline="https://globalnews.ca/video/embed/3698042/#autoplay&#038;stickyiframe=video_3698042">

	<p>A mandatory evacuation was ordered for the low-lying Houston suburb of Dickinson, home to 20,000. Police cited the city&#8217;s fragile infrastructure in the floods, limited working utilities and concern about the weather forecast.</p><p>In Houston, questions continued to swirl about why the mayor did not issue a similar evacuation order.</p><p>Turner has repeatedly defended the decision and did so again Monday, insisting that a mass evacuation of millions of people by car was a greater risk than enduring the storm.</p>		<p>

		<p>At the Addicks and Barker reservoirs, the Army Corps started releasing water Monday because water levels were climbing at a rate of more than 6 inches (15 centimetres) per hour, Corps spokesman Jay Townsend said.</p><p>The move was supposed to help shield the business district from floodwaters, but it also risked flooding thousands more homes in nearby subdivisions. Built after devastating floods in 1929 and 1935, the reservoirs were designed to hold water until it can be released downstream at a controlled rate.</p><p><strong>LISTEN: Lisa and her family were rescued by a boat this morning in Houston. </strong></p>		<form id="wpcom-iframe-form-8943a0638856887662605f9007413b06-5a8a0fda778f3" target="wpcom-iframe-8943a0638856887662605f9007413b06-5a8a0fda778f3" method="post" action="//wpcomwidgets.com/?wpcom_origin=https%3A%2F%2Fshawglobalnews.wordpress.com" style="display: none">

		<p>Forecasters expect the system to stay over water with 45 mph (72 kph) winds for 36 hours and then head back inland east of Houston sometime Wednesday.
