The disaster, triggered by back-to-back nights of relentless rainfall, caused the Guadalupe River to surge by as much as 26 feet in under an hour, sweeping away roads, homes, and entire communities across six counties.<\/p>\n<p>In the early hours of Friday morning, residents of Kerr County were jolted awake as floodwaters tore through the Upper Guadalupe region. The river\u2019s sudden rise overwhelmed low-lying ranches, rural neighborhoods, and summer camps before many even had time to react. Rescue crews described the water\u2019s rise as one of the most rapid they\u2019d ever seen in the region.<\/p>\n<p>Kerr County was hit hardest, recording 68 deaths\u201428 of them children. Eleven campers are still unaccounted for from Camp Mystic, a well-known girls\u2019 camp in the area. Other counties, including Kendall, Gillespie, Real, Comal, and Bandera, reported additional fatalities, with swift-water incidents and destroyed homes contributing to the grim toll.<\/p>\n<div class=\"google-auto-placed ap_container\"><ins class=\"adsbygoogle adsbygoogle-noablate\" data-ad-format=\"auto\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-6638610645332968\" data-adsbygoogle-status=\"done\" data-ad-status=\"unfilled\"><\/p>\n<div id=\"aswift_2_host\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" id=\"aswift_2\" tabindex=\"0\" title=\"Advertisement\" src=\"https:\/\/googleads.g.doubleclick.net\/pagead\/ads?gdpr=0&amp;client=ca-pub-6638610645332968&amp;output=html&amp;h=280&amp;adk=3343016698&amp;adf=83760943&amp;pi=t.aa~a.23905774~i.8~rp.4&amp;w=780&amp;abgtt=6&amp;fwrn=4&amp;fwrnh=100&amp;lmt=1752107366&amp;num_ads=1&amp;rafmt=1&amp;armr=3&amp;sem=mc&amp;pwprc=3462236420&amp;ad_type=text_image&amp;format=780x280&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fmardinolay.com%2F2025%2F07%2F08%2Flive-updates-at-least-79-dead-as-search-efforts-intensify-after-texas-floods%2F&amp;fwr=0&amp;pra=3&amp;rh=195&amp;rw=780&amp;rpe=1&amp;resp_fmts=3&amp;wgl=1&amp;fa=27&amp;uach=WyJXaW5kb3dzIiwiMTkuMC4wIiwieDg2IiwiIiwiMTM4LjAuNzIwNC45NyIsbnVsbCwwLG51bGwsIjY0IixbWyJOb3QpQTtCcmFuZCIsIjguMC4wLjAiXSxbIkNocm9taXVtIiwiMTM4LjAuNzIwNC45NyJdLFsiR29vZ2xlIENocm9tZSIsIjEzOC4wLjcyMDQuOTciXV0sMF0.&amp;dt=1752107366487&amp;bpp=1&amp;bdt=442&amp;idt=-M&amp;shv=r20250708&amp;mjsv=m202507070101&amp;ptt=9&amp;saldr=aa&amp;abxe=1&amp;cookie=ID%3D98c90b22225e5096%3AT%3D1750465909%3ART%3D1752107364%3AS%3DALNI_MZN4J9tSWcF0kuZ1Dp55X9zxYUo2w&amp;gpic=UID%3D00001155a21647ea%3AT%3D1750465909%3ART%3D1752107364%3AS%3DALNI_MbylSE7fNLxt9QokJFj8k4K-epxRA&amp;eo_id_str=ID%3D6e1c10a70be6f28f%3AT%3D1750465909%3ART%3D1752107364%3AS%3DAA-AfjZGweHlKxfllRY3jV4kpE1X&amp;prev_fmts=0x0%2C1200x280&amp;nras=3&amp;correlator=1776401445763&amp;frm=20&amp;pv=1&amp;u_tz=120&amp;u_his=3&amp;u_h=1080&amp;u_w=1920&amp;u_ah=1032&amp;u_aw=1920&amp;u_cd=24&amp;u_sd=1&amp;dmc=8&amp;adx=368&amp;ady=2619&amp;biw=1905&amp;bih=945&amp;scr_x=0&amp;scr_y=0&amp;eid=95353386%2C95362655%2C95363081%2C95365234%2C95365461%2C31093358%2C42533293%2C95344789%2C95359266%2C95365797&amp;oid=2&amp;pvsid=5482737063274604&amp;tmod=813248144&amp;uas=0&amp;nvt=1&amp;ref=https%3A%2F%2Fmardinolay.com%2F%3Fs%3DLive%2Bupdates%252C%2BAt%2Bleast%2B79%2Bdead%2Bas%2Bsearch%2Befforts%2Bintensify%2Bafter%2BTexas%2Bfloods%26fbclid%3DIwY2xjawLb6LNleHRuA2FlbQIxMABicmlkETBTTWJKQU9ob3d2WUd4QkwzAR5Xw2BgJZOY8Zvx_X4Rn9NhTw86JQlHcX2PaOaWyhVHIc5Jd8-HOX23bK1cIA_aem_HJCfG087_dx6CheRVGGyDg&amp;fc=1408&amp;brdim=0%2C0%2C0%2C0%2C1920%2C0%2C1920%2C1032%2C1920%2C945&amp;vis=1&amp;rsz=%7C%7Cs%7C&amp;abl=NS&amp;fu=128&amp;bc=31&amp;bz=1&amp;td=1&amp;tdf=2&amp;psd=W251bGwsW251bGwsbnVsbCxudWxsLCJkZXByZWNhdGVkX2thbm9uIl0sbnVsbCwzXQ..&amp;nt=1&amp;pgls=CAEaBTYuOC4x~CAEQBBoHMS4xNTYuMA..&amp;ifi=3&amp;uci=a!3&amp;btvi=1&amp;fsb=1&amp;dtd=158\" name=\"aswift_2\" width=\"780\" height=\"0\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" sandbox=\"allow-forms allow-popups allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox allow-same-origin allow-scripts allow-top-navigation-by-user-activation\" data-google-container-id=\"a!3\" aria-label=\"Advertisement\" data-load-complete=\"true\" data-google-query-id=\"CK27v8mEsY4DFa8bBgAdNCkD1g\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p><\/ins><\/div>\n<p>Survivors have shared harrowing accounts of the flood\u2019s sudden fury. Some said water rose from ankle-deep to roof-high in under ten minutes. Camp Mystic counselors scrambled to get girls to higher ground using kayaks, but several dormitories were torn apart. With cell towers down and many roads washed out, emergency response was delayed in several locations. Despite these challenges, more than 230 people have been rescued by boat or helicopter since the flooding began.<\/p>\n<p>On Saturday night, President Donald Trump signed a Major Disaster Declaration for Kerr County, unlocking vital FEMA aid, debris-clearing contracts, and emergency housing support. FEMA\u2019s Region VI team deployed to Kerrville by Sunday, coordinating with state and local responders.<\/p>\n<p>Weather remains a concern. The National Weather Service has extended a Flash Flood Watch through Monday morning for much of Hill Country and the I-35 corridor, warning that an additional 2 to 4 inches of rain could fall. Emergency officials are urging residents to avoid rural roads, respect barricades at low-water crossings, and use multiple methods to receive alerts.<\/p>\n<p>The disaster has also raised serious questions about preparedness. Kerr County currently lacks a siren-based river warning system. Camp leaders admitted to relying mostly on smartphone weather apps, which failed to provide timely alerts. County Judge Rob Kelly acknowledged the oversight, pledging to pursue a more robust alert system once the crisis subsides.<\/p>\n<p>As the community begins to process the scale of this tragedy, many are asking how they can help. The Hill Country United Way has launched a dedicated \u201cGuadalupe Flood Relief\u201d fund to support victims, while Texas VOAD has called for volunteers to register online instead of showing up unannounced. A 24\/7 missing-person hotline has also been established at 830-555-2025.<\/p>\n<div class=\"google-auto-placed ap_container\"><ins class=\"adsbygoogle adsbygoogle-noablate\" data-ad-format=\"auto\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-6638610645332968\" data-adsbygoogle-status=\"done\" data-ad-status=\"unfilled\"><\/p>\n<div id=\"aswift_4_host\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" id=\"aswift_4\" tabindex=\"0\" title=\"Advertisement\" src=\"https:\/\/googleads.g.doubleclick.net\/pagead\/ads?gdpr=0&amp;client=ca-pub-6638610645332968&amp;output=html&amp;h=280&amp;adk=3343016698&amp;adf=1816832213&amp;pi=t.aa~a.23905774~i.18~rp.4&amp;w=780&amp;abgtt=6&amp;fwrn=4&amp;fwrnh=100&amp;lmt=1752107366&amp;num_ads=1&amp;rafmt=1&amp;armr=3&amp;sem=mc&amp;pwprc=3462236420&amp;ad_type=text_image&amp;format=780x280&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fmardinolay.com%2F2025%2F07%2F08%2Flive-updates-at-least-79-dead-as-search-efforts-intensify-after-texas-floods%2F&amp;fwr=0&amp;pra=3&amp;rh=195&amp;rw=780&amp;rpe=1&amp;resp_fmts=3&amp;wgl=1&amp;fa=27&amp;uach=WyJXaW5kb3dzIiwiMTkuMC4wIiwieDg2IiwiIiwiMTM4LjAuNzIwNC45NyIsbnVsbCwwLG51bGwsIjY0IixbWyJOb3QpQTtCcmFuZCIsIjguMC4wLjAiXSxbIkNocm9taXVtIiwiMTM4LjAuNzIwNC45NyJdLFsiR29vZ2xlIENocm9tZSIsIjEzOC4wLjcyMDQuOTciXV0sMF0.&amp;dt=1752107366488&amp;bpp=1&amp;bdt=443&amp;idt=1&amp;shv=r20250708&amp;mjsv=m202507070101&amp;ptt=9&amp;saldr=aa&amp;abxe=1&amp;cookie=ID%3D98c90b22225e5096%3AT%3D1750465909%3ART%3D1752107364%3AS%3DALNI_MZN4J9tSWcF0kuZ1Dp55X9zxYUo2w&amp;gpic=UID%3D00001155a21647ea%3AT%3D1750465909%3ART%3D1752107364%3AS%3DALNI_MbylSE7fNLxt9QokJFj8k4K-epxRA&amp;eo_id_str=ID%3D6e1c10a70be6f28f%3AT%3D1750465909%3ART%3D1752107364%3AS%3DAA-AfjZGweHlKxfllRY3jV4kpE1X&amp;prev_fmts=0x0%2C1200x280%2C780x280%2C780x280&amp;nras=5&amp;correlator=1776401445763&amp;frm=20&amp;pv=1&amp;u_tz=120&amp;u_his=3&amp;u_h=1080&amp;u_w=1920&amp;u_ah=1032&amp;u_aw=1920&amp;u_cd=24&amp;u_sd=1&amp;dmc=8&amp;adx=368&amp;ady=3673&amp;biw=1905&amp;bih=945&amp;scr_x=0&amp;scr_y=78&amp;eid=95353386%2C95362655%2C95363081%2C95365234%2C95365461%2C31093358%2C42533293%2C95344789%2C95359266%2C95365797&amp;oid=2&amp;pvsid=5482737063274604&amp;tmod=813248144&amp;uas=0&amp;nvt=1&amp;ref=https%3A%2F%2Fmardinolay.com%2F%3Fs%3DLive%2Bupdates%252C%2BAt%2Bleast%2B79%2Bdead%2Bas%2Bsearch%2Befforts%2Bintensify%2Bafter%2BTexas%2Bfloods%26fbclid%3DIwY2xjawLb6LNleHRuA2FlbQIxMABicmlkETBTTWJKQU9ob3d2WUd4QkwzAR5Xw2BgJZOY8Zvx_X4Rn9NhTw86JQlHcX2PaOaWyhVHIc5Jd8-HOX23bK1cIA_aem_HJCfG087_dx6CheRVGGyDg&amp;fc=1408&amp;brdim=0%2C0%2C0%2C0%2C1920%2C0%2C1920%2C1032%2C1920%2C945&amp;vis=1&amp;rsz=%7C%7Cs%7C&amp;abl=NS&amp;fu=128&amp;bc=31&amp;bz=1&amp;td=1&amp;tdf=2&amp;psd=W251bGwsW251bGwsbnVsbCxudWxsLCJkZXByZWNhdGVkX2thbm9uIl0sbnVsbCwzXQ..&amp;nt=1&amp;pgls=CAEaBTYuOC4x~CAEQBBoHMS4xNTYuMA..&amp;ifi=5&amp;uci=a!5&amp;btvi=3&amp;fsb=1&amp;dtd=416\" name=\"aswift_4\" width=\"780\" height=\"0\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" sandbox=\"allow-forms allow-popups allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox allow-same-origin allow-scripts allow-top-navigation-by-user-activation\" data-google-container-id=\"a!5\" aria-label=\"Advertisement\" data-load-complete=\"true\" data-google-query-id=\"CNq2z8mEsY4DFUccBgAdm4YzBg\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p><\/ins><\/div>\n<p>State officials continue to emphasize caution. \u201cThe river is still extremely dangerous,\u201d warned DPS Captain Laura Meza. \u201cWe understand the urge to return home, but please wait for the official all-clear.
