At least 13 people have died and over 20 girls remain missing after torrential rains triggered catastrophic flash flooding in Kerr County, Texas. The Guadalupe River surged 26 feet in just 45 minutes, sweeping away cars and flooding a summer camp with over 750 children. Texas Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick called it “a very tough day for Texas,” warning the death toll may rise as search and rescue efforts continue. Most campers are safe, but dozens are still unaccounted for, with helicopters, drones, and rescue swimmers deployed across the region. Local officials said the flooding struck with almost no warning, leaving little time for evacuation. More heavy rain is forecast in the coming days, raising fears of further disaster.

Please get an investigative journalist on the issue of County Commissioners Court allowing unethical development in floodplains. Any person can request the Kerrville floodplain map through using the Open Records Request form. County Commissioners vote on "variances" for unethical developers to build in the floodplain. You hear County Count Judge Rob Kelly asking for prayers for the dead. Check how many building and development projects he and his court have voted to approve.
This is not a catastrophic flood. It is rain. Water falls from the sky and it runs downhill. This has happened for millennium in the hill country. The problem is County Commissioners have approved "variances" for development in the floodplain.
WE THE PEOPLE have the right to ask for Open Records Request.
Was some rancher hoarding and damming up the water? Bad engineering or what. Where are the animals? This is unimaginable sadness
Joe Biden caused the floods right Texas?? RFLMAO 😂😂
What does this have to do with the climate change hoax? Flash floods happen all the time. We get flash flood warnings constantly in Texas.
Again Where is the WHITE rage now !
Now that it is a white man and other White men taking away your health care
Social security, snaps, section 8 all because you couldn't vote for a black woman. Fafo
Prayers for the families
Some really ignorant comments in here…
Rosie O'Donnell called it “a very tough day for Texas,”
If only there were government departments who's job it is is to look at these things, like weather, climate change, etc etc etc.
Why couldn't this have been predicted?! At least the night before.
Why is climate change in the title. This is a horrible and devastating loss of life .
I must have missed the climate conversation in this video. If you want people worried about climate change then don't shove it where there's 0% possibility for any evaluation to have come to this conclusion.
Makes the people on the fence dismiss it.
There's enough trauma to tell in this story with bs clickbait
The orange taco is playing golf instead of helping the people
FEMA ain't coming to help. Trump and Musk cut those unnecessary organizations 😂
The Texas government should be in jail….
does seeding clouds count as climate change?
TACO cancelled wheather warnings … congrats texas this what u wanted … are u great yet
It is not climate change. It is the chemtrailing and geoengineering that is changing the climate. Make them stop this nonsense. My prayers for the victims and their families.
So, how's the weather down there in Texas? Is it still going crazy? Don't worry about that global warming stuff, that's just a hoax, the weather's just fine! Yep, the weather's just fine! OH yeah, too bad your Orange Jesus canceled FEMA. Faith, hope, charity, and mercy? No WAY, your orange Jesus wants to keep the money for himself. YOU GOT TRUMPED
Donald Trump said global warning was a hoax and the crowd of intelectualls cheered the great leader
This is the reward for voting for TACO?SMH!
THE END TIME SIGNS ARE GETTING WORSE THAN EVER
Sir, God, help and protect the people from the catastrophic Texas flooding !!!
Senor, Dios, te suplico que a ayudes y protejas a toda la gente de Texas que sufrio el catastrophe flooding !!!
Has the National Guard been activated?
Texas is RED.. so don't expect any funds from the Trump gov't. Good!!
We're is the exact location
Climate change is bs, just like global warming, and all the other names used every ten years since the 70's.
My condolences to the families that lost their loved ones and property.
No make accusations, just praying 🙏
It is not climate change. It’s weather modification & cloud seeding bs! Stop messing with the weather. Stop the chemtrails Abbott!
As a native Texan, I know how it can occasionally come a sudden flash flood. I remember, as a kid, being able to swim in the lower areas near our property after one of these deluges. And, also, these campgrounds are commonly located in flood planes, where land is cheap. Hopefully, many more kids will be found unharmed! 🙏
Only 13 drones? Zelenskyy has many, take from him.
It's really ignorant to blame the president or anybody else for this. Look up the definition of flash flood, geniuses. A lot of these comments are outright stupid. I just pray for those affected. Mother nature can be so brutal.
Wait how happy they will be without assistance from Fema. They all voted for Drumf….. May the serve well
Strong on immigrants weak on peoples safety.🇯🇲
What is that music!! Why!
This is what you get for privatizing all your public services because you thought it was Communism to pay tax and have free medical care and free rescue services. America is so perverted and delusional and simplistic and stupid. Big money has fooled you all and your fake Christian Fundamental Churches are telling you just praying for deliverance is the answer. Get a grip. You are here to do God's work yourself because that is what God is. God is Us doing good in the world. Praying is to get our heads together. There are churches that get this but not in America because you have deluded yourselves.
Trump will assist will he, oh yeah only MAGA.
