  5. #FlashFlood Emergency Is Issued in #Texas After Days of Pounding Rain

    Roads were turning to rivers on Wednesday as emergency officials in towns around #SanAntonio raced to rescue people who had been stranded.

    A tornado was spotted in San Antonio, and #Uvalde and Harris counties experienced flooding as heavy rain fell on Tuesday and Wednesday

    "Another day of pounding rain across Texas has led to flash flood warnings, perilous river levels and a scramble of evacuations as emergency responders rushed to rescue people from quickly rising waters.

    "In the city of #UvaldeTX, the seat of Uvalde County, Commissioner Roy Coachman said that as of 9 a.m. local time on Wednesday there were 25 rescues throughout the county as river levels continue to rise.

    " 'First responders are actively rescuing in the northern part of Uvalde County,' he told a news conference.

    "The Uvalde Police Department said a dam in the northern part of the county was still intact, but the river gauge upstream of the #LeonaRiver, above Uvalde, is registering a 20-foot wall of water. 'It is expected to rise another 15 feet,' the police said.

    " 'If you live along the Leona River, we ask that you get to higher ground,' the police said.

    "In #BoerneTX, north of San Antonio, the National Weather Service declared a flood emergency on Wednesday and said up to 12 inches of rain had fallen in the Hill Country city, with more on the way.

    "Chris Shadrock, Boerne’s communications director, said water had enveloped the city’s Main Street. High water rescues were taking place in the city, which has a population of 12,314.

    " 'This is a life threatening weather event,' he said on the city’s social media page. 'We are seeing flood conditions that we have not seen since 2015.'

    "The American Red Cross said on Wednesday that there had been dozens of water rescues in southern parts of Texas, where heavy rain had already inundated populated areas with up to 16 inches of rain. The precipitation was expected to last through Friday,

    "The #Pecos, #RioGrande, #Nueces, #Frio, #Medina and San Antonio rivers could all flood, it said. The areas at greatest risk include all or parts of Medina, Frio, Uvalde, Kinney, #Maverick, #Zavala, #ValVerde, Edwards, Real and #Bandera counties, it said."

  11. Here's what to know as the scope of damage from #Hawaii's #floods becomes clearer

    By AUDREY McAVOY and GENE JOHNSON
    March 23, 2026 at 3:18 pm PDT

    HONOLULU — "The worst #flooding to hit Hawaii in two decades swept homes off their foundations, floated cars out of driveways and left floors, walls and counters covered in thick, reddish volcanic mud.

    "Crews continued to assess the destruction Monday, but authorities said hundreds of homes had been damaged, along with some schools and a hospital.

    "No deaths have been reported, but more than 230 people had to be rescued. Rain continued to the southeastern part of the state and a section of the #BigIsland was under a #FlashFlood warning.

    "Gov. Josh Green said the cost of the storm could top $1 billion, including damage to airports, schools, roads, homes and a Maui hospital in Kula. He called it the state’s most serious since flooding since 2004, when floods in Manoa inundated homes and a University of Hawaii library.

    "On Oahu's North Shore, famed for big wave surfing, the waters rose quickly after midnight Friday as heavy rains fell on soil already saturated by downpours from a winter storm a week earlier. Raging waters lifted homes and cars. The storm prompted evaluation orders for 5,500 people north of Honolulu — though they were later lifted — and more than 230 people were rescued from the rising waters.

    "Some residents fled on surfboards as water reached waist or chest high.

    "Farms around the state reported more than $9.4 million worth of damage as of Monday, according to a survey conducted by Agriculture Stewardship Hawaii, the Hawaii Farm Bureau and other organizations. Oahu farmers reported more than $2.7 million in crop damage.
    Winter storm systems brought severe deluges

    "Officials blamed some of the devastation on the sheer amount of rain that fell in a short amount of time.

    "Parts of Oahu received 8 to 12 inches (20 to 30 centimeters), the National Weather Service said. That was on top of another recent storm that had dumped vast amounts days earlier. Kaala, the island’s highest peak, got nearly 16 inches (40 centimeters) late last week, on top of 26.6 inches (67.6 centimeters) between March 10 and 16.

    "Winter storm systems known as '#Kona lows,' which feature southerly or southwesterly winds that bring in moisture-laden air, have been responsible for the deluges in the past two weeks. The intensity and frequency of heavy rains in Hawaii have increased amid human-caused #GlobalWarming, experts say.

    "The worst of the storms appeared to be over by Sunday afternoon."
