SUMMARY: Catastrophic flooding in central Texas over the July Fourth weekend killed over 80 people, including 27 campers and counselors at Camp Mystic along the Guadalupe River. Authorities continue searching for many missing amid heavy debris and challenging conditions, with over 1,000 volunteers aiding rescue efforts in Kerr County. Despite flood warnings, the unprecedented intense downpour—months of rain in hours—caught residents off guard. Survivors described clinging to trees and attics as waters surged. Officials face scrutiny over preparedness and response. President Trump declared a disaster, promising a visit and recovery aid, while downplaying criticism of federal meteorological and emergency agencies amid broader government spending cuts.

SUMMARY: Summer fun near water in South Mississippi requires strict safety measures, especially during holidays like the Fourth of July. Ashlyn Noel, aquatics coordinator at the Salvation Army Kroc Center, stresses always wearing properly fitting life jackets, even for strong swimmers, and using the buddy system. Adults should closely watch children near water. Bright swimsuit colors like red and orange improve visibility, while pastels and blues do not. Teaching water safety early is vital. Kids suggest practical tips like using floaties, staying near adults, avoiding deep water, and swimming with goggles. These precautions help prevent drowning, the leading cause of death in children under four.
