Texas Floods Kill 82, Dozens Missing Across Multiple Counties
Catastrophic flash floods in central Texas have resulted in at least 82 deaths, including 28 children, with 41 people still unaccounted for, many of whom are campers and counselors from Camp Mystic, an all-girls summer camp devastated by the flooding. Despite multiple warnings issued by the National Weather Service and Texas Division of Emergency Management, officials and local authorities expressed surprise at the severity of the floods and admitted there was no effective warning system in place for areas like Kerr County, which suffered the highest death toll. Governor Greg Abbott acknowledged the situation's gravity and pledged ongoing search efforts while also warning of potential additional flooding due to continued heavy rains on saturated ground. Rescue operations continue amidst challenging terrain and dangerous conditions, with helicopters and drones deployed to locate missing individuals. The disaster has sparked frustration and scrutiny over the timing and adequacy of flood warnings and evacuations, with upcoming special sessions planned to address these concerns. President Trump announced plans to visit the affected regions, amid debates about federal cutbacks possibly impacting disaster response capabilities.
