    San Antonio firefighters rescued several motorists after they drove into high water Wednesday.  

    One operation captured crews on an aerial ladder reaching out to a stranded motorist.

    Two boats operated by fire and rescue personnel were downstream in case he didn't make it into the ladder, according to KABB.

    Three other people were rescued from other locations while a tractor-trailer got stuck in high-water on I-10.

    More rain is expected Thursday.
