Devastating flash floods in Texas have resulted in at least 104 deaths, with dozens more still missing. The flooding, which began on July 4th, caused the Guadalupe River to swell dramatically in a short time. At least 27 girls and staff members at Camp Mystic, a Christian summer camp, perished in the disaster. Hundreds of rescuers are searching for survivors, but slow-moving thunderstorms continue to pose a flood risk. The lack of weather sirens and limited cell service in the area may have hindered warning efforts. Officials are considering improvements to the warning system. International aid is pouring in, and the White House has declared the floods a major disaster.
