DALLAS (AP) — One person was killed and thousands were left without power as another round of thunderstorms raged across parts of Texas, triggered flash-flood warnings and dumped hail on some parts of the region.

The Harris County Sheriff’s Office says a male motorist was killed when a tree limb fell on his sport utility vehicle during a midday thunderstorm in Spring on Monday. Storms also knocked out power to more than 37,000 Houston-area customers. More than 11,000 CenterPoint Energy customers were still without power as of the Monday afternoon commute.
