This comes a little over a year after the deadly floods in Hill Country that led to the death of more than 130 people.
Abbott says this storm is expected to produce more rain than that.
So far, 75 people have been rescued, mostly from stranded motorists.
Abbott and emergency officials say Texans should avoid driving if possible, and if they must, then don't drive over rain-covered roads.

You know, I think what it really says is that, you know, in a Republican primary runoff, it's going to be the most extreme voters that come out and vote.

Polling for this potential matchup had Tallarico ahead by one point, something that if true would make history as no Democrat has won a Texas state race in three decades.
