As search and recovery efforts continue following the deadly floods, NWS warns of isolated flash floods due to the possibility of heavy rain this weekend.⛈️

FEMA records obtained by NBC 5 Investigates show that Kerr County officials did not use FEMA’s Integrated Public Alert & Warning System to send warnings with safety instructions to all mobile phones in the affected area during critical hours as the flooding began on July 4.

The alert says there is a high chance the Guadalupe River will flood on Sunday. They’re asking for all people, equipment and vehicles to move away from the river immediately. They also said all volunteer operations are suspended until further notice, stating “safety of lives is the highest priority.”

In the last nine years, federal funding for a system has been denied to the county as it contends with a tax base hostile to government overspending.

Kerr County first tried to secure $1 million for a flood warning system in 2017, but could not. Could such a system have prevented loss of life on July 4?

Sunday morning recovering efforts were suspended in Kerr County due to heavy rainfall and a new flash flood warning issued for the Hill Country.

Many of the 650 campers and staffers at Camp Mystic were asleep when, at 1:14 a.m., a flash-flood warning for Kerr County, Texas, with “catastrophic” potential for loss of life was issued by the National Weather Service.
