Over the last decade, an array of local and state agencies have missed opportunities to fund a flood warning system intended to avert the type of disaster that swept away dozens of youth campers and others in Kerr County,

Flash floods surged through in the middle of the night, but many local officials appeared unaware of the unfolding catastrophe, initially leaving people near the river on their own.

Two days before flash floods on the Guadalupe River in Texas killed dozens of campers at a Christian girls summer camp, a state inspector approved operations, noting there was a written plan for responding to natural disasters.

At least 161 people remain missing in Kerr County, Texas, as authorities and volunteers search the Guadalupe River for victims.

Eight-year-old girls at sleep-away camp, families crammed into recreational vehicles, local residents traveling to or from work. These are some of the victims.

The psychological toll of recovering the bodies of flood victims in Texas is drawing increased attention as the death toll grows.

Texas officials refused to answer many serious questions about how prepared they were for the deadly flooding that struck the area on July 4th.

Flash floods that swept through Texas over the Fourth of July weekend have left more than 100 people dead and more than a dozen others missing.
