COMMENTS: Stays Mainly on the Plain
The weather on the northern plains of Texas was the lead on ABC and NBC. ABC's Mike von Fremd found the plains transformed into "whitewater rapids." Rainfall as torrential as four inches an hour triggered flash floods that washed away cars and mobile homes and forced residents to await rescue on the roofs of their homes. "Some people simply could not outrun the deluge," stated CBS' Mark Strassmann, as at least four were killed. NBC's Don Teague saw "boats, hovercraft, even construction equipment" pluck hundreds to safety.
