FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) — Authorities say they have rescued another 40 people from floodwaters in a Texas county near Houston even though rain has stopped in most of the state.

Some rivers and waterways are still rising slowly after torrential rain last week. Forecasters say flooding of the Brazos River in parts of southeast Texas will continue through Tuesday, when the river is expected to crest more than three feet above the previous record. The people were rescued last Sunday and Monday in Fort Bend County.

The Texas death remains six from floods, while an 11-year-old boy is missing and presumed dead in Kansas. Flood warnings across Texas remained in effect Monday though only isolated rainfall was expected in parts of the southeast.

Elsewhere, Tropical Depression Bonnie weakened near the South Carolina coast.
