United Continental Holdings Inc. canceled all flights to and from its hub at Houston’s George Bush Intercontinental Airport through Monday at noon. The Federal Aviation Administration said the smaller William P. Hobby Airport closer to downtown Houston would stay closed until Wednesday as historic rainfall drenching the fourth-largest U.S. city continues. About 817 flights were delayed, an uncharacteristically small number for such an event, kept in check by the large number of flights airlines canceled pre-emptively.
