Tropical Storm Allison caused minor problems along coastal sections of southeast Texas, but eventually resulted in catstrophic flood losses further inland.

The specific flood events that occurred between June 7th and 9th were a result of the remnants of Tropical Storm Allison, as it meandered across southeast and east Texas.
