Hurricane Harvey Weakens as 'Catastrophic' Flooding Anticipated

Hurricane Harvey was downgraded to a tropical storm Saturday afternoon as it moved inland over Texas and destroyed homes and businesses on the coast. Officials urged caution in anticipation of "catastrophic and life-threatening flooding" in the days to come.

"Do not focus on the fact that #Harvey is now a tropical storm- a catastrophic flooding event is still unfolding!" the National Hurricane Center said in a tweet Saturday afternoon.
