In Brenham, Texas, a tragic incident occurred where 10-year-old Devah Woods was swept away by floodwaters amid severe weather conditions. After extensive search efforts, including drones and canine units, her body was recovered the next morning. The community is mourning her loss, with officials emphasizing the dangers posed by rapidly rising waters. Concurrently, in Colleyville, Texas, a lightning strike led to a house fire, underscoring the risks associated with the ongoing severe weather across the state as forecasts predict continued threats to millions in Texas.
"Please continue to keep this precious child, her family, and all the dedicated first responders in your thoughts and prayers," the Brenham Fire Department said in a Facebook post.
Officials said several people tried to help the girl, but were unsuccessful. First responders, too, needed to be rescued after they were swept downstream while trying to rescue her.
