The catastrophic flooding in Texas Hill Country has claimed over 100 lives, with Governor Greg Abbott leading relentless recovery efforts. At least 109 Texans have died, including 30 children in Kerr County alone. Another 161 remain missing after the Guadalupe River surged 26 feet in 45 minutes, swallowing entire communities.
Rescue teams work around the clock to locate survivors as families endure unimaginable grief. Camp Mystic, a Christian girls’ retreat, suffered devastating losses—27 campers and counselors perished. Director Richard Eastland died heroically trying to save children from the raging waters.
Governor Abbott declared 21 counties disaster zones and secured federal support from President Trump. He vowed, “We will not stop until every missing person is accounted for.” Texans demonstrate resilience while facing the deadliest flood in state history.
Officials urge citizens to report missing loved ones immediately. The state’s unwavering response shows Texas spirit at its strongest when darkness falls. Recovery will be long, but leaders pledge to rebuild what was lost.
