The National Weather Service has issued severe weather alerts across much of Texas. Forecasters are expecting gusty winds, isolated tornadoes, floods and storms capable of dropping pea to ping-pong-sized hail. This comes after authorities near Houston recovered the body of a 10-year-old girl killed in floodwaters Monday. And according to forecasters, the weather isn't expected to let up.
