Floodwaters Rise Again in South Texas | Fargo News

South Central Texas braces for catastrophic flooding as rivers surge to record levels, with Governor Abbott confirming two deaths and over 230 water rescues already conducted. Uvalde County is especially devastated, with floodwaters nearing rooftops and roads submerged — a terrifying repeat of last year’s deadly deluge that claimed 130 lives. Emergency crews are stretched thin across hundreds of miles, battling rising waters fueled by relentless rain and upstream runoff. In Comfort, the Guadalupe River jumped from 5 to 37 feet in hours, swallowing vehicles and triggering sirens. Officials warn that even if rain stops locally, water levels will keep climbing — and with forecasted rainfall possibly exceeding 30 inches, this storm could shatter records. The region’s trauma is fresh: last year’s deadly flash floods also claimed lives at a summer camp. Residents are urged to stay indoors and heed warnings — this is no ordinary flood.
