It's time to rise up and start this week strong.

是时候站起来，坚强地开始本周了。

Let's go.

我们走吧。

We start today with extreme weather in Texas and its impact on residents.

我们今天从德克萨斯州的极端天气及其对居民的影响开始。

Over the past month, a series of brutal weather events have rattled the state, including dozens of tornadoes like this one near Abilene.

在过去的一个月里， 一系列恶劣的天气事件令该州感到不安，其中包括阿比林附近的数十场龙卷风。

Now, significant rainfall is now flooding roads and stranding livestock.

Rivers are hitting levels that haven't been seen since Hurricane Harvey in 2017.

河流水位正达到自 2017 年哈维飓风以来从未见过的水平。

To put this amount of water into perspective, on Thursday, the communities just north of Houston received two months worth of rain in one day alone.

从周四的数据来看，休斯敦北部的社区仅一天就收到了相当于两个月的降雨量。

That's combined with an unusually wet spring that already made the ground super saturated, meaning it couldn't absorb any more water.

再加上异常潮湿的泉水已经使地面变得超级饱和，这意味着它无法吸收更多的水。

So that water has to go somewhere and it has led to flash floods popping up throughout the region.

因此，水必须流向某个地方，这导致整个地区突然出现山洪。

Disaster declarations are now in effect for more than a third of Texas.

目前，德克萨斯州三分之一以上的地区已发布灾难声明。

In Harris County, a local official says more than 200 people have been rescued without any injuries or deaths reported.

在哈里斯县，当地官员称已有 200 多人获救，没有人员伤亡的报告。

These events show how

这些事件表明如何

嗯，对于从上涨的海水中获救的人来说，有很多情绪化和非常紧张的时刻。

What you hear in the background is an airboat.

您在背景中听到的是汽艇的声音。

They're still rescuing individuals, but they're also trying to convince them to evacuate.

他们仍在营救人员，但也试图说服他们撤离。

Let me show you around.

让我带你参观一下。

This is an area that's called the River Bottom.

这是一个被称为河底的区域。

Now this street curls around and there are homes back there, RVs back there.

I've talked to neighbors who say that there are between 8 and 15 individuals back there who do not want to evacuate.

我与邻居交谈过，他们说那里有 8 到 15 个人不想撤离。

But take a look around and you'll see the water levels.

但是看看周围,你会看到水位。

You see the water level on the fence and on the trees.

您可以看到栅栏和树木上的水位。

If you look closely, the good news is that some of the water is receding because you can tell that water level from the tree.

Now, I talked to the owner of this mobile home.

现在，我和这间活动房屋的主人交谈过。

她的名字叫史黛西·史密斯，是有权进入她家的人之一。

She has taken everything out.

她把一切都拿走了。

She has left the area.

她已经离开了该地区。

But she says that she's trying to come back because she's trying to convince the 8 to 15 individuals that she calls friends and family who are back in the river bottom because she's hoping that they evacuate to safety.

但她说，她正在努力回来，因为她试图说服那 8 到 15 个人，她打电话给回到河底的朋友和家人，因为她希望他们能够撤离到安全的地方。

听听。

The ones that didn't want to come right now, We're going to go back and get with a personal boat and we're going to go get everybody.

那些现在不想来的人，我们要回去并乘坐私人船去接每个人。

We're not leaving nobody behind because they're like our family.

我们不会抛下任何人，因为他们就像我们的家人。

They're like family down there.

他们就像那里的家人一样。

And just to put this into perspective, Harris County, Texas, is one of the biggest counties in the country.

从这个角度来看，德克萨斯州哈里斯县是美国最大的县之一。

And according to authorities at this point, they estimate that several hundred homes are being impacted.
