Severe Flooding in Texas Causes Fatalities and Evacuations

Severe storms have unleashed catastrophic flooding across Texas, particularly affecting the Guadalupe River region. Kerr County is facing a significant emergency, with the mayor of Kerrville issuing a disaster declaration as rising waters lead to confirmed fatalities and ongoing rescue operations. Evacuations have been ordered in both Kerr and Kendall Counties, where residents are urged to seek higher ground. Heavy rainfall has caused the river to overflow, submerging homes and prompting road closures.
