Emergency crews suspend search for flooding victims in central Texas amid new flood warnings
SUMMARY: Emergency crews in Kerrville, Texas, suspended their search for victims of catastrophic July 4th flooding due to new heavy rain and flash flood warnings. The Guadalupe River’s rapid rise flooded roads and bridges, forcing evacuation of search teams. The floodwaters surged 26 feet in 45 minutes, destroying homes and camps, including Camp Mystic, where at least 27 campers and counselors died. The disaster exceeded a 100-year flood event and caught many off guard amid a lack of warning systems. Kerr County endured 120 billion gallons of rain. Nearby San Antonio also faced deadly flash floods earlier this summer, highlighting the region’s vulnerability.
