Flash floods in Texas have caused at least 104 deaths, with over 20 people still missing as of Monday. The National Weather Service alerts indicate potential worsening conditions due to thunderstorms and heavy rain. Flooding has affected a large area, with a footprint over 150 miles, primarily from the Guadalupe River and surrounding rivers. Rainfall totals of five to 18 inches in hours led to dramatic river rises, particularly the Guadalupe, which reached 39 feet in three hours, transforming the landscape into a vast flood zone.
Over 20 people remain missing and the final death total will almost certainly stretch even higher throughout the week.
A flood watch has been issued for Central Texas that lasts until 8pm ET, with dozens of counties in the path of the storm.
The Guadalupe River reached a devastating 39 feet in under three hours, affecting approximately 50 miles of its course.
