Texas Floods Surge to Deadly Levels | San Francisco News

Texas is in crisis as historic flooding sweeps through the Hill Country and near the Mexican border, with some areas receiving ten to twenty inches of rain in just two days—eight inches in a single morning. Emergency crews have rescued over forty people, mostly near Uvalde, as rivers surge to levels seen last July, threatening lives and homes. The National Weather Service warns of a “large and deadly flood wave,” urging immediate evacuation to higher ground. Towns like Kerrville are advising residents to move to upper floors, while Uvalde County issued a shelter-in-place order as roads vanish under water. Governor Greg Abbott has declared disaster areas across dozens of counties, with millions under flood watches. Though no deaths or injuries have been reported yet, officials stress conditions could worsen—flood watches remain in effect through Friday evening as rescue efforts continue.
