  4. FEMA update (as of earlier this morning) on the Texas flash flood event

    "Situation and Analysis: A significant flash flooding event is ongoing across the Texas Hill Country and into the San Antonio area. Rainfall totals of between 10-20 inches have been reported over the past 2 days in Uvalde,
    TX (pop. 15k), with rainfall of 5-9” reported since midnight in some areas near Uvalde and Kerrville, TX [pop. 24k] (NWS, as of 5:55 a.m. ET). Open sources indicated that over 75 people have been rescued thus far (Open-source
    media, as of 8:19 p.m. ET, Jul 15). Major riverine flooding is ongoing or forecast in the Nueces, Sabinal, Medina, and Guadalupe basins, with rapid rises noted on the Guadalupe River (National Water Center, as of 5:30 a.m. ET). Additional
    rainfall of 6-8”, locally up to 10”, could occur today (NWS, as of 4:00 a.m. ET). Texas DEM is supporting local response efforts (R6 SPOTREP #3, as of 12:22 a.m. ET)"

  6. The Growing Threat of Flooding on Transportation Infrastructure Across Texas Through 2100
    --
    doi.org/10.1029/2026EF008207 <--shared paper
    --
    H/T @Rakibul Ahasan
    “[The researchers] modeled flood susceptibility across Texas at 30 m resolution and projected how it shifts through 2100. The headline is not just that flood risk grows, but that it moves, into places current planning and regulatory maps are not watching. The July 2025 Kerrville flooding sat squarely inside the kind of inland hazard expansion this model projects.
    KEY TAKEAWAYS:
    ● 95% of new flood exposure by 2100 is inland, away from the coast, shifting the resilience problem into interior river basins that planning has historically deprioritized.
    ● Where [they] benchmarked against FEMA's National Flood Hazard Layer, the model flags substantial hidden risk in rapidly urbanizing peri-urban areas, most notably in Greater Houston.
    ● Climate change alone expands the flood-susceptible footprint by 10–12% by 2100, before any new road or land-use development, so this is a conservative floor, not a ceiling.
    ● Half the state's roads and rail and 80% of its bridges already sit in flood-susceptible zones today.
    ● [They] accounted for both factor-importance and spatial-scale uncertainty, using a Monte Carlo weight-perturbation ensemble and multiscale analysis across nested neighborhoods.
    The practical takeaway: this is a statewide screening layer, not a replacement for site-level hydraulic studies. It shows planners and policymakers where the gap between today's protection and tomorrow's risk is widest, and where unmapped peri-urban growth is walking into exposure that regulatory maps still call safe…”

  15. Ground searches are temporarily suspended Monday in Kerr County due to new flood threat;

    "Due to the incoming threatening weather, all volunteers should vacate the river area, and MOVE TO HIGHER GROUND for their safety. Only teams working under the direction of Kerr County Emergency Operations Center Unified Command are permitted in the response zone." - Kerr County Texas

  16. Kent waded through the floodwaters toward the shed where he kept a ladder. By the time he set it up to reach the outside entrance of the attic, floodwaters were rushing onto the property.

    They made it just in time to watch the waters rise. They were marooned. texasobserver.org/texans-hang-

  19. #SundayShowdown
    #PuppyKillerNoem is on #MtP defending her response to the #Kerrville Flood [72 hours later], saying over & over again that resources "were deployed AS SOON AS THEY WERE REQUESTED within hours."

    #FEMA shouldn't be waiting for a *request* for help before it's sent. #HeckOfAJobKristi 🤬

  20. #Kerrville #KerrCounty #Texas - July 13, 7:49 a.m. Ground search operations are suspended at this time to flood danger. The potential for a flash flood is high.

  21. I remember the river
    how it felt like a silent companion and always gentle guide
    how it felt timeless, ever present and patiently waiting for our return

    I remember singing “Peace, I ask of thee oh river, peace, peace, peace”

  23. Our top story: Extreme #flooding events are nothing new to #Texas. Neither are droughts. And the first does tend to follow the second here. This weather reality has likely been exacerbated by climate change. texasobserver.org/hill-country

  24. "The total amount of rainfall is not really changing but it is being condensed into more of these short, high-intensity events and then longer periods of drought. So we’re basically getting more drought and more #floods because the rainfall is being condensed into these high-intensity events." texasobserver.org/hill-country

  25. I remember the river,
    flowing so peacefully and slowly you could almost miss its motion
    I remember the river,
    mirroring the vastness of the starry sky stretched far beyond the nestled valley

  27. For over a decade now (since he announced in 2015) I've been pointing out how #DementiaDon is a #Conspiracy NUT who believes EVERY insane #ConspiracyTheory he's told.

    It proved deadly in 2019 when the #RWNJ lunatics on the Right convinced him #Covid was "a Chinese bio-weapon" that we DIDN'T need to protect ourselves from with masks or social distancing. 🤨

    And now he's filled his cabinet with CT crackpots who think the #Kerrville flood was "bioengineered." #JFC

  28. New from @candicequestions: The climate change-fueled torrential downpour—in what is already the state’s deadliest flood since 1921—has now put the county’s lack of sirens into the spotlight. Texas lawmakers had a chance just earlier this year to establish a statewide council to lay out a new disaster response plan including outdoor sirens, but the measure failed. texasobserver.org/texans-hang-

  31. “Climate change loads the dice toward more frequent and more intense #floods. The flash flood that tore through Camp Mystic at night, when people were most vulnerable, shows the deadly cost of underestimating this shift.” texasobserver.org/climate-chan

  32. @edwilk More honest version of the statement ⬆️ by #Kerrville Mayor Joe Herring Jr. would be “I’m more focused on covering my ass than the failure to install a #flood warning system in the past.”
