Texas Flood Death Toll Surges Over 100

News summary

Catastrophic flash floods in Central Texas, especially along the Guadalupe River in Kerr County, have killed over 100 people, including at least 28 children, and many remain missing. The disaster hit Camp Mystic especially hard, with five campers and one counselor still unaccounted for. The floods were caused by rapid river surges following record rainfall, prompting a nationwide response: specialized rescue teams from several states joined over 17,000 Texas personnel in the search and recovery efforts. Aid organizations like the Salvation Army are providing critical support to survivors and responders. The tragedy has been compared to a 1987 flood but is far deadlier. Officials are now reviewing the effectiveness of warning systems, as many victims reportedly received little or no advance notice.
