At Least One Dead as Life Threatening Flash Floods and Storms Hit Central Texas The recent flash floods and storms in central Texas are a stark reminder of the region's vulnerability to extreme weather events.
The disaster comes just one year after devastating floods on the Fourth of July weekend, which killed over 100 people. Emergency crews are scrambling to rescue stranded drivers and people trapped in homes.
The National Weather Service issued flash flood emergencies for parts of Kerr and Uvalde counties, where up to 20 inches of rain have already fallen in some areas.
