Texas Tribune - As many as 13 bodies have been found and 23 girls from a private Christian girls’ camp unaccounted for after a catastrophic flood swept through Kerr County, Texas. https://www.texastribune.org/2025/07/04/texas-flooding-deaths/
Death toll from Hill Country flash floods rises to 24 as rescue efforts continue

Local officials said they have rescued or evacuated more than 200 people since the Guadalupe River flooded early Friday morning, but the fate of more than 20 girls missing from a camp remains unclear.

@w7voa The chief elected official in the county says both: "this is the most dangerous river valley in the United States” and “we do not have a warning system.". That seems wildly incongruous. If the most dangerous river valley in the US (presumably in terms of flooding) doesn't have a warning system, then someone isn't doing their job. #Texas #Flooding

@JustToOdd Please update your "chief elected official" to reflect that he's a Republican. The overwhelming majority in Kerr County voted for this. I don't feel a tiny bit sorry for anyone who voted for a Republican legislature, House, Senate and president. The kids? I'm sorry that they had parents who were so reckless with their lives.

@Axomamma I am not aware of the political affiliation (if any) of Judge Rob Kelly.

@JustToOdd Easy enough to find out. He's a Republican.
