Moment entire cabin full of people swept downriver in Texas flooding

Texans are bracing for more rain and flash flooding as the death toll climbs to at least 82, with dozens still missing.

The National Weather Service warned that parts of Central Texas, known as “Flash Flood Alley,” could be doused in as much as 10 inches of rain on Monday. Additional heavy rainfall in the “hardest hit areas of the past few days will lead to rapid runoff and flash flooding,” the agency said.

A desperate search continued Monday for 10 girls and their counselor from Camp Mystic, an all-girls Christian summer camp along the Guadalupe River, which was ravaged by the floods, officials said.

At least four girls missing from the summer camp were found dead. At least 28 children were killed in what Texas Representative Chip Roy called a “once-in-a-century flood.”

The unexpected flash flooding struck on Friday before the July Fourth weekend after torrential rain along the Guadalupe River. The destructive force of the fast-rising waters just before dawn on Friday washed out homes and swept away vehicles.

President Trump will 'probably' visit Texas on Friday, he tells reporters

Before boarding Air Force One on Sunday evening, the president said he would “probably” visit Texas on Friday.

Asked on whether he planned to visit the state, Trump told reporters: “Probably on Friday. We wanted to leave a little time. I would have done it today, but we'd just be in their way.”

He added: "We're working very close with representatives from Texas, and it's a horrible thing that took place, absolutely horrible.”

Further threat of flash floods with more rain expected today

The National Weather Service has issued another flood watch over central Texas, warning that isolated rainfall could reach up to 10 inches on Monday.

The agency’s Austin/San Antonio branch warned of further threats of flash flooding with an increase in rainfall and storms expected overnight near the I-35 corridor and eastern Hill Country.

Additional heavy rainfall in the “hardest hit areas of the past few days will lead to rapid runoff and flash flooding,” the NWS added.
