HOUSTON (AP) The latest on the strong storms buffeting Texas for a second day, causing flooding and possible tornadoes (all times local):
11:20 a.m.
Some light rail service has resumed in Houston amid storms that flooded roadways and sent bayous out of their banks.
The Metropolitan Transit Authority of Houston reported limited rail service resumed late Saturday morning in parts of Houston. Officials had suspended all service on the nearly 23-mile light rail line due to heavy rain and flooding.
The National Weather Service issued a flash flood warning for parts of Harris, Brazoria, Chambers, Galveston and Liberty counties until midday Saturday.
