In between gathering with family and friends this Memorial Day weekend, it is important to pause and remember what Memorial Day is all about – honoring our nation’s heroes.

The National Weather Service in Fort Worth issued a flood warning in several North Texas counties, including Tarrant County, beginning Monday evening through Tuesday morning, when 1 to 3 inches of rain is forecast. The NWS predicts flooding of up to 4 to 6 inches.

On Memorial Day, we honor those who made sacrifices and thousands gathered for the "Carry the Load" memorial march in Dallas. FOX's Amelia Jones spoke with attendees about the significance of the event.

"It's awesome meeting these people and hearing their stories and carrying the load for them. Makes it a little bit lighter," said Colton Morrow.

Storms dumped more than 3 inches of rain in parts of North Texas early Monday. More showers are expected tonight, but the severe weather risk is low.
