First up, this morning, the southern and central parts of Texas were under a flash flood watch. May was the wettest month in the U.S. state`s history, but June hasn`t brought any relief so far. Rainfall of more than two inches per hour is in the forecast.

今天早上,德克薩斯南部及中部地區(qū)發(fā)生洪水。5月是美國歷史上洪水肆虐的頻發(fā)期,但目前為止情況還沒有任何緩和。天氣預報稱每小時降雨量超過2英寸。

The governor has declared a state of emergency in 31 Texas counties and what that does is speed up assistance to the areas that need it most. The grounds are already saturated in many parts of the state. So, our forecast of more rain can only increase the threat of floods.

該州州長于宣布德州31個縣進入緊急狀態(tài),而此舉導致對救援人員加速救援行動。德州許多地區(qū)降雨量已達到飽和狀態(tài)。因此我們預測更多的強降雨只會增加洪水的威脅。

For perspective, last month alone, Texas got more than 35 trillion, that`s trillion with a T, 35 trillion gallons of rain. That would have been enough to cover the entire state with almost eight inches of water, though the rain was concentrated in specific areas.

舉例來說,僅上個月,德克薩斯州的降雨量就達到超過35萬億加侖的降雨量。這種程度的降雨量足以淹沒整個州,雖然雨水集中在特定的區(qū)域,但整個德克薩斯會達到8英寸的降雨量。

Where is it all going?

這些降雨最終會去到哪里?
