- SEARCH FOR SURVIVORS: Though the likelihood of finding survivors grows slimmer four days out from the devastating flood, rescue crews continue to comb through the region, searching for survivors.
- FLOOD THREAT REMAINS: More rain is expected in Central Texas, and a flash flooding risk remains in the area.
- CAMP MYSTIC GRIEVES: Camp Mystic, the summer camp at the center of the devastating flooding that has hit the Texas Hill Country over the last three days, is “grieving the loss of 27 campers and counselors.”
Coast Guard air crews hoisted people from flooded RV rooftops to escape fast-rising floodwaters in Kerrville. At least 95 people have died as search efforts intensify following catastrophic flooding in central Texas.
