    	<p><a href="https://globalnews.ca/tag/hurricane-harvey/">Tropical Storm Harvey </a>sent devastating floods pouring into the nation&#8217;s fourth-largest city Sunday as rising water chased thousands of people to rooftops or higher ground and overwhelmed rescuers who could not keep up with the constant calls for help.</p><p>The incessant rain covered much of Houston in turbid, grey-green water and turned streets into wide channels navigable only by boat. In a rescue effort that recalled the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, helicopters landed near flooded freeways, airboats buzzed across inundated neighbourhoods and high-wheel vehicles plowed through water-logged intersections. Some people managed with kayaks or canoes or swam.</p><p><strong>WATCH: Dramatic video of floods in Texas after Hurricane Harvey hit.</strong><br />			<section>

			<p>One person was killed in Aransas County in a fire at home during the storm, county Judge C.H. &#8220;Burt&#8221; Mills Jr. said.</p><p>Another person &#8211; a woman who tried to get out of her vehicle in high water &#8211; died in flooding in Harris County, where Houston is located, though authorities had not confirmed a cause of death, said Gary Norman, a spokesman for the Houston emergency operations centre.</p><p>The fiercest hurricane to hit the U.S. in more than a decade came ashore late Friday about 30 miles (48 kilometres) northeast of Corpus Christi as a mammoth Category 4 storm with 130 mph (209 kph) winds.</p><p>Harvey weakened Saturday to a tropical storm. On Sunday, it was virtually stationary about 25 miles (40 kilometres) northwest of Victoria, Texas, with maximum sustained winds of about 40 mph (72.42 kph), the hurricane centre said.</p><p>The system was the fiercest hurricane to hit the U.S. in 13 years and the strongest to strike Texas since 1961&#8217;s Hurricane Carla, the most powerful Texas hurricane on record.</p><p>&nbsp;</p>
