  1. Catastrophic flooding occurring across portions of the Texas Hill Country this July 4th. The Llano River in Llano, TX is currently (as of 5pm) flowing at over 109,000 cubic feet per second, when 5 hours ago it was about 500.

  2. If you have any loved ones that were at Guadalupe River State Park north of San Antonio, hopefully they have been moved away from the river by now. Just upstream at the Bergheim campgrounds the river rose from 6 feet to 36 feet in one and a half hours. That wall of water is coming into the state park soon and then will cross under HWY 281 near the town of Spring Branch before dumping into Canyon Lake later tonight.

    Once I saw that the entire RV camp was swept away, in the middle of the night, I feared as such. On top of the camps. 

    So sad. 

     

    lot of facebook posts popping up about missing people and kids

    From camp? Or general population along the river? 

     

    i think he meant one specific camp 

    many areas have not reported

    What a brave badass counselor. Glad the littles did as they were told. I taught swimming to the 8 year olds in the Guadeloupe and I’m impressed with those campers in that situation. Scariest thing ever to happen was a water moccasin swimming under the pier right at them and I told them (bc they did not see the snake coming at them) to race each other to the other pier. Snake went under the pier under me and down an embankment thing. Kids never knew. 
     

    It is hard to fathom all this shit. Sorry for rambling. This hits really close to home. I should take a break and only post if I hear anything news worthy. 

     

    thats extremely quick thinking and reacting !

    KXAN's "future radar" seems to be predicting a near-total weakening by rush hour, and then a second build around sunset (for whatever that's worth).

     

    sa news is saying it's going to reform tonight, 11pm to 3am

    The state of Texas is surging all available resources to respond to the devastating flooding around the Kerr county area.

    That includes water rescue teams, sheltering centers, the National Guard, the Texas Department of Public Safety.

    The immediate priority is saving lives.

    The guy on the San Antonio station seems to be speaking pretty confidently about the models and another big round overnight in the same area of the Hill Country.  By that time the damage will have been done, the toll of what is TBD. It hasn't sounded good but hoping for the best. 

    Supposed to be another presser at 3 so hopefully some updates. 

    Nightmare. 

     

    just saw that 

    they want to extend flood warnings into tomorrow am

    I know it’s all hands on deck lots of help incoming. in addition to National Guard and other agencies. 
     

    so much beauty gone in an instant. Hard to fathom. Hard to fathom like that freak storm that hit Lake Tahoe two weeks back. And also claimed lives. 
    Power of nature, beauty of nature, mercilessness of nature…all of us at her whim. 
     

    Already tragic from those poor souls at the trailer park. 
    the fucking lakes better fill the fuck up then. 

     

    they need to be in contact with county judges and county emergency directors, not members of congress
