Texas Flood Death Toll Now at Least 90

News summary

At least 90 people have died and dozens remain missing after catastrophic flash floods hit Texas Hill Country, with Kerr County and riverside camps like Camp Mystic especially impacted. Torrential rain, fueled in part by remnants of Tropical Storm Barry, caused the Guadalupe River to rise 26 feet in 45 minutes, overwhelming emergency systems and cutting off warnings due to power and cell service outages. Search and rescue operations are ongoing as officials begin transitioning to recovery, and survivors have criticized gaps in emergency alerts and preparedness. Widespread infrastructure damage has prompted river and park closures, and local officials are reviewing flood alert protocols. The disaster response has drawn national scrutiny, with allegations of politicization and disparities in how federal aid is distributed. Donations and support continue as affected communities face the long recovery process.
