Up to 10 inches of rain was forecast as the storm moves inland, posing flooding problems in already soaked Texas. Tornadoes were also possible.
Forecasters said Humberto was expected to weaken but could stall over Mississippi on Friday and into the weekend.
Elsewhere, a stubborn cold front lingered over the Southeast, bringing showers and thunderstorms along the Gulf
Coast and Southeast Coast.
A cold front pressing into the Plains and upper Midwest was ushering cold air into the region, providing fall-like weather in the Intermountain West and northern Plains. The northern portions of the regions were forecast to rise only into the 40s and 50s.
The rest of the West was expected to remain dry. The Southwest was forecast to rise into the 90s and 100s, while the Northwest was to see temperatures in the 70s and 80s.
Parts of the Southeast could rise into the 80s and 90s, while the Northeast could see temperatures in the 60s and 70s.
Temperatures in the lower 48 states Wednesday ranged from a low of 24 degrees at Stanley, Idaho, to a high of 117 degrees at Death Valley, Calif.
