Tropical Storm Hanna continued to weaken as it pushed inland Sunday, but left rain, flooding and reports of damage as the storm crossed past southern Texas and entered Mexico. The National Hurricane Center said in its 1 p.m. CDT advisory that Hanna’s eye was hovering over northeast Mexico, about 10 miles north of Monterrey. « Rapid weakening is expected as the center of Hanna moves farther inland, and the cyclone is expected to weaken to a tropical depression later today and dissipate Monday or Monday night, » the National Hurricane Center said Sunday morning. Hanna has pelted the area with widespread flooding and damage and even though the eye has moved further inland, more rain and wind is expected to trail the storm. The NHC said Hanna was expected to produce total rain accumulations of between 6 to 12 inches, with isolated maximum amounts of 18 inches through Monday.
