Central Texas, with its rocky soil, steep terrain and susceptibility to heavy rain, has been prone to devastating floods over the decades.

Devastating flash floods in Central Texas on Friday have killed more than 100 people, including over two dozen at Camp Mystic, a Christian summer camp for girls along the Guadalupe River.  More than 160 people remain unaccounted for,

Local officials have faced angry questions about whether they could have warned people of dangerous flash floods in Texas Hill Country sooner. Rescue teams from neighboring states and Mexico have joined local efforts to search for survivors,

The torrential rain that brought destruction to a children’s summer camp and other holiday spots in rural Texas came with devastating speed. Water came crashing through the stone cabins of Camp Mystic in the early hours of Friday with little warning as the girls and staff slept.
