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,

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.

Heavy rain poured over parts of central Texas, dumping more than a month's worth of rain for places like San Angelo.

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.

At least 161 people remain missing in Kerr County, Texas, as authorities and volunteers search the Guadalupe River for victims.

Satellite images are providing a clearer picture of the devastation brought by the deadly flooding in Central Texas over the July Fourth weekend.  At least 120 people were killed and over 160 remained missing as of Wednesday,

A Kerrville-area river authority executed a contract for a flood warning system that would have been used to help with emergency response, local officials said.

Hill Country residents and volunteers on Tuesday continued picking up the pieces that the deadly waterway left behind days earlier.
