BROWNSVILLE, Texas—Hurricane Dolly churned into a Category 2 storm as its eye neared the Texas-Mexico border Wednesday, bringing fierce winds and heavy rains that blew down signs, damaged an apartment complex and knocked out electricity to thousands.Hear that, people? Dolly could do as much damage as Katrina. Don't screw THIS one up, local, state, and federal governments!
Forecasters warned of up to 15 inches of rain that could produce flooding and breach levees in the heavily populated Rio Grande Valley.
