SAN ANTONIO — The death toll from Thursday morning's flash flood that overwhelmed numerous cars in northeast San Antonio – pushing them off the roadway and into a nearby creek bed – has grown to 13, officials said.

Matthew Angel Tufono had just celebrated his 51st birthday with loved ones. Hours later on his way to work, he became trapped in the chaos of rushing floodwaters.

Residents across Central Texas are left with with damaged property after the area experienced record-breaking rain, dangerous winds and a short-lived tornado on Thursday, June 12. Several towns, many of which are in the San Antonio metropolitan area, are also experiencing flash flooding, resulting in a number of road and river closures.

At least four people are dead, and several others were rescued after heavy rainfall and flash flooding inundated San Antonio, Texas.

Slow-moving storms could result in flash flooding across parts of Central and South Texas. Hail and strong winds are possible, too.
