Weather forecasters' worst fears regarding Hurricane Harvey are being realized in Houston, the nation's 4th-largest city, as a historic deluge pounded the city overnight and into Sunday morning, with no signs of relenting. Widespread, "catastrophic" flooding is occurring, with emergency responders struggling to rescue people from rapidly flooding homes.

Officials report at least 1,000 people were rescued overnight from rising waters, and the National Weather Service (NWS) has been issuing some of the most dire flood warnings in its history.
