<script>(adsbygoogle=window.adsbygoogle||[]).push({});</script><p>The death toll in the catastrophic hurricane Harvey that lashed through the US state of Texas has increased to 37, the media reported.</p>
<p>The unrelenting storm that made landfall on August 25 unleashed its wrath on a wide swath east of Houston, leaving thousands stranded in flooded homes and forcing the evacuation of a nursing facility and even an emergency shelter where residents had sought refuge, reports CNN.</p>
<p>The storm left record-setting rain in Harris County &#8212; which saw 19 deaths &#8212; before unleashing 15 inches in the Beaumont area, Texas Governor Greg Abbott said.</p>
<p>But for the first time since the weekend, authorities said, the flooding in Houston, the fourth largest US city, is slowly receding in some areas.</p>
<p>Although the hurricane has weakened to a tropical depression with its centre now located in southwest Louisiana, emergency workers and volunteers went door to door for a fifth day on Wednesday, trying to rescue victims of the flood.</p>
<p>Houston Police Chief Art Acevedo said authorities have received 60,000 to 70,000 calls for help.</p>
<p>&#8220;We just pray that the body count won&#8217;t rise significantly.&#8221; CNN quoted Acevedo as saying.</p>
<p>Harvey is still threatening to dump an additional 3 to 6 inches of rain from northern Louisiana into western Kentucky, forecasters said.</p>
<p>New Orleans officials announced a fundraiser to help the residents of Houston and other flooded Texas cities recover from Harvey.</p>
<p>Harvey has broken the US record for rainfall from a single storm, CNN reported. It has dumped almost 52 inches of rain in parts of Texas.</p>
<p>The coastal cities of Beaumont and Port Arthur got pummelled with 26 inches of rain in 24 hours.</p>
