Heat and storms plague Houston as recovery begins
Houston faces scorching heat and poor air quality while crews repair widespread storm damage. At least seven people died as a tornado and high winds knocked out power to hundreds of thousands. Centers offer cooling aid and 400 free portable air conditioners to seniors and disabled residents. Power restoration may take days as CenterPoint deploys crews and warns of damaged infrastructure. Disaster declarations open federal aid while schools cancel classes and police deter looting.
