Nearly a week after deadly floods struck Central Texas, search and rescue teams are continuing to probe debris for those still missing.

Over the last decade, an array of local and state agencies have missed opportunities to fund a flood warning system intended to avert the type of disaster that swept away dozens of youth campers and others in Kerr County,

A now-viral video posted by Larry Schaubhut Jr. on Friday, July 4, showed the river rising rapidly at the popular River Road property in New Braunfels, reaching 27 feet and sweeping away trees, furniture and gear. Schaubhut, who co-owns River Road Sky Cabins and River Road Treehouses, said he had just evacuated guests when the water surged.

Flash floods surged through in the middle of the night, but many local officials appeared unaware of the unfolding catastrophe, initially leaving people near the river on their own.

Two days before flash floods on the Guadalupe River in Texas killed dozens of campers at a Christian girls summer camp, a state inspector approved operations, noting there was a written plan for responding to natural disasters.

At least 120 people have died and some 173 people remain unaccounted for statewide, nearly a week after flash floods ravaged the Texas Hill Country.

Before and after satellite images from Texas show the effects of the devastating flooding that occurred along the Guadalupe River on July 4.
