Officials patrol the area around International Bridge 1 as rising water from the Rio Grande flows over light poles and a parking lot sign, Friday, July 9, 2010 in Laredo, Texas. As a strong storm dumped rain on the already high Rio Grande, those living downstream braced for a torrent of water that has led to the closure of two international bridges and evacuations on both sides of the U.S.-Mexico border further up the river.
