Crews resumed searching for victims of catastrophic flooding in Texas, where at least 132 people have died. Heavy rains caused the search to pause temporarily, as authorities feared further flooding. Many residents in Kerr County were not adequately warned of rising waters. Search efforts were affected by severe weather, but resumed later. The flooding damaged around 100 homes and necessitated evacuations in certain regions. The ongoing situation remains critical as extensive search and rescue operations continue.
The latest round of flooding damaged about 100 homes and knocked down untold lengths of cattle fencing, impacting the rural community significantly. Authorities estimate that more than 160 people are still missing.
During the pause in searches, the Ingram Fire Department ordered crews to evacuate the Guadalupe River corridor, as conditions were ripe for a flash flood.
