 A freight train overturned on waterlogged tracks Saturday morning in Texas as heavy rains pounded the region for a third straight day — with remnants of Hurricane Patricia threatening to keep a large part of the state under a flash flood watch. 
 
 One person, a man walking his dog in San Antonio, was missing as a result of the floods, authorities said. 
 
 Patricia was downgraded Saturday to a tropical depression after making landfall in Mexico Friday evening. But many parts of Texas were still expecting significant rainfall.

 Houston Mayor Annise Parker warned that 8 to 10 inches of rain were expected overnight. 
 
 In addition, Houston, Corpus Christi, and other portions of southeast Texas were under a tornado watch until 10 p.m. CT, according to the Weather Channel. 
 
 Two train crew members were rescued after a Union Pacific train derailed around 3:30 a.m. local time in Navarro County south of Dallas, officials told NBC Dallas-Fort Worth. Union Pacific spokesman Jeff DeGraff told the station that one locomotive and several rail cars were partially submerged, but no one was injured. 
 
 Both crew members "swam to high ground" and were pulled out by a high-water rescue team, DeGraff said. 
 
 The 64-car train was en route from Midlothian to Houston when it got caught in floodwaters, which have closed major highways throughout North Texas.

 The train remained on its side on Saturday, about 4 miles north of Corsicana, as authorities waited for the water to recede before attempting to right it and remove it from the tracks.

 Eric Myers, emergency management coordinator for Navarro County, told NBC News the tankers contained cement. He said that the county had received 20 to 21 inches of rainfall in the past 24 hours, and said authorities had performed 72 swift water rescues. 
 
 Interstate 45 near Corsicana was closed for several hours Friday night, creating traffic backups that were miles long. 
 
 Elsewhere in Texas, heavy rainfall was causing power outages and flight delays. In San Antonio, emergency responders were searching for a man who was swept away Saturday around 3 a.m. local times (4 a.m. ET), The Associated Press reported. The man fell into a flooded drainage ditch while trying to pull his dog back. 
 
 The dog was found, but firefighters had to suspend the search for his owner due to the weather. 
 
 Strong thunderstorms dropped more than 7 inches of rain across Dallas-Fort Worth, NBC Dallas-Fort Worth reported, with flash flood watches and warnings in effect in many places until Sunday. 
 
 The remnants of Patricia — which made landfall Friday evening in southwestern Mexico as a Category 5 storm — are expected to reach Texas by Saturday night and exacerbate the flooding, forecasters said.

 "It should start to move out Sunday night, but East Texas is going to still be in the rain Sunday night, even Monday," Jon Rowe, senior meteorologist for The Weather Channel, told NBC News. "There will be some lingering rain showers even by Tuesday." 
 
 The heaviest of the rain should be done by Sunday night, he added, "but they're going to have flooding problems in South and East Texas at least through tomorrow." 
 
 Hundreds of flights were canceled or delayed on Thursday and Friday at Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport. The airport got 3.24 inches of rain on Friday alone — a daily record. ||||| DALLAS (AP) — A powerful storm system rumbled through Texas on Saturday, flooding roads and causing a freight train to derail as parts of the state braced for the remnants of Hurricane Patricia to arrive.

 Many parts of Texas, including some of its biggest cities, were under flash flood watches through Sunday or Monday. The remnants of Patricia, which was downgraded to a tropical depression and was expected to reach northern Mexico by Saturday night, may add to the rain falling in South and Central Texas, said Jesse Moore, a National Weather Service forecaster in Fort Worth. 
 
 The storm system already moving through Texas dumped nearly two feet of rain on parts of the state since Friday, causing flooding that blocked several major roadways. 
 
 Galveston County Judge Mark Henry on Saturday issued a voluntary evacuation for Bolivar Peninsula, just northeast of Galveston Island, after forecasters predicted that the area would get 8 to 12 inches of rain and tides that are 4 to 5 feet high. 
 
 The judge warned that residents who don't leave might find themselves cut off from emergency services as the heaviest winds and rains come ashore. The storm was expected to reach the area by around 6 p.m. Saturday. 
 
 "Elderly residents and people with medical conditions should make plans to leave the area before dark," Henry said. 
 
 County spokeswoman Brittany Rainville said there were buses waiting to evacuate people, but no one had yet shown up to leave as of early Saturday afternoon. She said about 4,000 people live on the peninsula. 
 
 In San Antonio, a man walking his dog before dawn early Saturday was swept into a flooded drainage ditch and disappeared, fire officials said. Firefighters searched for two hours but had to stop due to bad weather. They planned to resume as soon as possible. The dog is safe. 
 
 A driver in the Central Texas town of Temple heading to work Saturday morning was saved after he was able to get out of his car that was floating in floodwaters and grabbed a tree. Temple police say the man called 911 from his cellphone to summon help. Firefighters retrieved him and walked him to safety. 
 
 A Union Pacific freight train derailed before dawn on Saturday near Corsicana, about 50 miles south of Dallas, because a creek overflowed and washed away the tracks, said Jeff DeGraff, a railroad spokesman. The two crew members swam to safety and nobody was hurt, he said. 
 
 "They (crew) escaped the train after it stopped and swam to high ground," DeGraff said. "A Navarro County rescue team was able to get in and pull them to safety, they are back safe on dry ground." 
 
 One locomotive and several rail cars loaded with gravel went into the water and were partly submerged, DeGraff said. He had no specifics on how many cars derailed because crews couldn't reach the site due to flooding. 
 
 Authorities on Saturday morning reopened a section of Interstate 45 near Corsicana that was closed overnight due to flooding, backing up traffic for 12 miles. Moore said that since Friday morning, Corsicana has received 18 inches of rain and Powell has received 20 inches. 
 
 Flight tracker flightaware.com reported that about 100 Saturday flights had been canceled at Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport. 
 
 A flash flood watch was in effect for the Waco, Austin, San Antonio, Corpus Christi, Laredo and Brownsville areas through Sunday morning, according to the National Weather Service. The flash flood watch for Dallas and Fort Worth was lifted Saturday afternoon. 
 
 Forecasters say Houston and Galveston remain under a flash flood watch through Monday morning, with possible coastal flooding concerns. 
 
 Patricia was the most powerful hurricane on record in the Western Hemisphere and made landfall Friday along Mexico's Pacific Coast as a Category 5 storm. It quickly lost power as it moved inland and appeared to have caused remarkably little damage.

 8:49 a.m. - Heavy rain and icy conditions are likely to stick around through most of the Thanksgiving holiday weekend in parts of the central U.S. due to a slow-moving, complex weather system that's being blamed for at least 3 flash-flooding deaths. 
 
 "There's a pretty substantial shield of rain extending from parts of Texas across a lot of Oklahoma and into the mid-Mississippi Valley," said John Hart, a meteorologist with the Storm Prediction Center in Norman, Oklahoma.

 7:32 a.m. - The National Weather Service says a Flash Flood Watch remains in effect for North Texas through Sunday afternoon. Additional rainfall totals of 1 to 3 inches are possible... that's in addition to the 1 to 6 inches that have accumulated since Thanksgiving Day. The ground is saturated, which means additional precipitation is likely to cause flooding, especially near creeks and streams. You've heard it before, but heed this warning: Do not drive where water covers the road; you can't be sure the road surface is intact. 
 
 7:30 a.m. - Dallas Fire-Rescue helped a woman to safety after her vehicle was inundated by flood waters early Saturday morning.

 FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 27 
 
 10:56 p.m. - Several more rounds of rain before it's all said and done. Rainfall rates in this next batch about 1/4" per hour. Usually that wouldn't be a problem for North Texas, but today it is due to the previous 3"-6" of rain that has fallen over the past 48 hours. Even "light showers" may cause impacts. Rainfall totals will just continue to add up. Exercise caution and common sense while out on the roads! ? - Meteorologist Colleen Coyle 
 
 9:46 p.m. - Plano is reporting two sewer overflows at Big Leaf Court and on the Gleneagles Golf Course on Campbell Road. Officials say more than 200,000 gallons of sewage will overflow in those places combined before midnight. 
 
 9:26 p.m. - An ice storm is in progress to our west across the eastern Texas Panhandle-South Plains, north into western Oklahoma. Meanwhile, another broad area of cold rain is moving into north Texas from the southwest and will cover all the Metroplex and surrounding area, adding another 1 to 4 inches on top of the 4 to 8 inches that have already fallen. Flooding concerns will only increase as the night progresses. 
 
 The rain will be with us on and off (mostly on) throughout the weekend although not quite as heavy as what we have already seen. Still, some locations will approach nearly a foot of rain by sunset Sunday. -- Meteorologist Steve McCauley

 8:39 p.m. - Moisture continues to stream into North Texas. That will keep the rain going as more development moves from San Angelo to DFW. It's like a conveyor belt of showers! 
 
 7:16 p.m. - Another heavy band of rain has made its way into parts of the DFW area. Rainfall rates are around 1" per hour. Normally, that wouldn't be a problem, but this is falling on top of the 4"-6" of rain that we've already received. Flooding issues will persist. 
 
 5:19 p.m. - Arlington Christkindl Market will be closed tonight. A new opening date has not been set. 
 
 5:16 p.m. - A batch of heavy rain is moving northeast across Palo Pinto County. Rainfall rates are about 1"-1.25" per hour. It should move through quickly, but we will need to monitor for any flooding problems. 
 
 4:52 p.m. -Another wave of rain is approaching the DFW area. Don't let the "on and off showers" and "lighter rain" fool you today! Even the light showers are adding to our rainfall totals. As time ticks away, our rainfall totals will continue to slowly and steadily rise. That will keep the flood threat high overnight. Flooded roadways will be hard to see after dark so use extreme caution! 
 
 3 p.m. - Weekend weather outlook: 
 
 Facebook | @WFAA Weather Additional waves of rain will continue to affect 
 
 2:30 p.m. - High water forced the closing of Prairie Lights in Grand Prairie. 
 
 "To ensure public safety, Prairie Lights is closed tonight Friday, November 27, due to high water caused by the rains," a city spokesperson said. "We expect to be open for business tomorrow, Saturday, November 28, receding water levels permitting." 
 
 2:15 p.m. - Dallas Fire-Rescue said that, by 11 a.m., it had responded to 27 water rescues and 83 motor vehicle accidents. DFR said the water rescues "didn't necessitate a boat or swift water team," and that a majority of the calls were in reference to cars stalled in high water.

 2 p.m. - It's beginning to look a lot like…a wet and cold Holiday Weekend! On the heels of Thanksgiving, waves of rain will continue to affect North Texas through Sunday afternoon. Most of the area has already seen 3"-6" of rain since Noon Thursday. With additional rainfall on top of already saturated soils, flash flooding remains a high threat. Exercise caution and common sense when travelling over the weekend. 
 
 Though we expect rain to continue, severe weather and winter weather are not expected in North Texas. Though temperatures tumbled behind our cold front Friday morning, everybody will stay above freezing. However, you will run into Old Man Winter if your plans are taking you into parts of the Texas Panhandle. Here at home, we will experience a cold rain with temperatures only warming to the 40s Saturday and Sunday afternoon. 
 
 As of 12:14am Friday, 2015 broke rainfall records becoming the wettest year ever for the DFW area.

The call came in at 12:38 a.m. and Vargas' body was found just after 10 a.m. The other two people who were in a pickup with Vargas survived. 
 
 County Sheriff's officials said the flooding took place near the Johnson County-Mansfield border, off County Road 917. 
 
 12 p.m. - A second death was confirmed in Johnson County floods, bringing the total number of deaths to three. County officials were expected to release information on the second death early Friday afternoon. Sandra Jones, 33, was found dead around 8:40 a.m. after being washed out of her vehicle in high water overnight.

 9 a.m - Periods of light to moderate showers will continue for the rest of today. A heavier batch rain is expected to move in late this afternoon and evening. 
 
 This will certainly aggravate the flooding problem going into tonight. An additional 3-5 inches of rain is expected today through early Sunday. Locally higher amounts are possible. This is on top of the nearly five inches we've seen at DFW as of 8 a.m. Friday. 
 
 Another round of heavier rain is also expected during the day on Saturday as moisture from Hurricane Sandra streams into the area. 
 
 2015 is now the wettest year on record with 55.23" so far. This breaks the old record of 53.54" in 1991. 
 
 The other part of the weather story today are the temperatures. We dropped from near 70 degrees early this morning into the 40s with the passage of the front. Gusty north winds will continue today at 15-20 mph. We likely will not get out of the 40s the remainder of the day. Some areas may not get out of the 30s on Saturday. Temperatures are expected to stay well above freezing, so winter precip. is not expected right now.

 8:45 a.m. - A Tarrant County Sheriff's Office deputy was found safe after being swept away in high water early Friday morning. The woman stranded in the vehicle had still not been rescued.

– Two crew members had to be rescued when flooding in Texas overturned a 64-car Union Pacific freight train on its way to Houston early Saturday morning, NBC News reports. Navarro County, where the train was derailed around 3:30am local time, had received nearly 2 feet of rain in 24 hours, and more was expected with what's left of Hurricane Patricia heading into the area. According to the AP, a creek overflowed and washed away the train tracks. "[The crew] escaped the train after it stopped and swam to high ground," a Union Pacific spokesperson tells the AP. "A Navarro County rescue team was able to get in and pull them to safety. They are back safe on dry ground." Despite several rail cars and a locomotive ending up partially underwater, no injuries were reported in the train crash, NBC reports. The train—which is carrying cement or gravel—was still on its side hours later, with crews waiting until water levels drop before they attempt to remove it. After three days of heavy rains, Navarro County has carried out five dozen water rescues. According to the AP, only one person is missing so far in the recent Texas flooding. A man walking his dog in San Antonio fell into a flooded draining ditch and was swept away. His dog was later found safe.
