The storm is predicted to be one of the most expensive natural disasters in U.S. history and presents the administration of U.S. President Donald Trump with massive humanitarian and rebuilding challenges.
Harvey weakened as it moved inland over Louisiana on Thursday, leaving behind record flooding that drove tens of thousands from their homes in Texas.
The death toll was rising as bodies were found in receding waters.
A new threat today came from explosions at a flood-hit chemical plant in Crosby, 30 miles northeast of Houston.
