Here's a partial, but in depth list of ways to help victims of the massive flooding and damage from Harvey.

With a week of high rain chances and heavy flooding for Harvey-impacted parts of the state, the Texas Attorney General and the Better Business Bureau are sending the reminder to retailers that they can't hike the price too much on necessary items. If you see that happening, you can report it.

A double landfall for Hurricane Harvey is definitely a possibility for Hurricane Harvey, and that would be terrible news for Houston and East Texas

What was once Tropical Storm Harvey is expected to regenerate and make a turn towards the Texas coastline.

As far as Hurricane Season goes, it's been rather quiet for the eastern third of Texas over the past few years.  That could be about to change.

So far in 2017, sunlight in Deep East Texas has been a little tough to find.  The good news is that Friday should bring us a sunny day, the bad news is that about 4 inches of rain could fall between now and that sunshine.

It looks like East Texas is in for a '1-2 weather punch' over the next several days as a series of storms is expected to bring the possibility of severe storms and multiple heavy downpours.

Severe weather and massive rainfall amounts are threatening the Pineywoods over the next several days.  Up to a foot of rain could fall in parts of our area.

The following is taken from a press release from the Angelina & Neches River Authority: On Tuesday, November 17th, the Angelina & Neches River Authority (ANRA) experienced a catastrophic failure of the sanitary sewer collection system at its North Angelina County Regional Wastewater Facility (NACRWF) located at 996 Edgewood Drive, Lufkin, TX.

4-8 inches of rain have fallen across the Deep East Texas area this morning which has lead to numerous reports of water over roadways.  Also, due to power outages, Wells ISD will be letting out at 12:30 today.  Buses will also run at that time.

Heavy rain and severe storms should spread throughout the East Texas area on Tuesday.  In fact, the National Weather Service has issued a Flash Flood Watch which is in effect Tuesday from 6 AM until Midnight.

CAUTION - explicit language in video 8 to 15 inches of rain and scattered reports of tornadoes greeted residents of San Marcos, Wimberley, Austin, and surrounding areas Friday morning.
