Description :
Heavy rains fueled by the meeting of two strong storm systems, one the remnants of Hurricane Patricia, pounded southeastern Texas triggering flash floods and derailing a freight train as the heavy weather descended upon Houston early on Sunday.
The National Weather Service predicted 6 to 12 inches of rain for coastal areas including southwest Louisiana by Monday morning, exacerbated by tides up to 5 feet and wind gusts up to 35 mph.
Mayor Annise Parker warned residents to stay away from wet roads after dark and be aware that flooding is likely.
The conditions could hinder transportation to and from the peninsula.
Power outages are also possible as a result of gale force winds, authorities said.
