Breaking News: One of the missing camp girls was found 12 miles down river in Texas.

In Hunt, Texas, where the Guadalupe River forks,
more than seven inches of rain has fallen since
Thursday afternoon – the highest total that area
since the early 1990s.

This led to a rapid rise of the Guadalupe River,
which accelerated to over 29 feet before sunrise,
the second-highest crest ever.
The intensity of the rain took officials and
residents by surprise.

The National Weather Service had issued a flood watch advisory for a
broad swatch of central Texas early Thursday
afternoon, urging residents of several countries to
be on alert for flood warnings. It was followed by sevêral urgent alerts the federal agency issuedHundreds of emergency personnel were search

for stranded people, using 14 helicopters and
ground crews who were struggling to navigate
flooded roads, officials said. They warned that them
m
death toll was likely to rise.
“This is a tragic event. It’s going to be a mass
casualty event,” Freeman F. Martin, the director of

the Texas Department of Public Safety, told
reporters Friday afternoon.

Mr Patrick said Camp Mystic was contacting the
perenis of campers who remain unaccounted for.
Camp Mystic: The Christian summer camp for
girls on the Guadalupe River is nearly a century
old. Its facilities include a recreation hall that was
constructed in the 1920s from local cypress trees.

Past flooding: For those old enough to have lived
through it, the flooding on Friday surfaced
memories of a deadly swelling of the waters along
the Guadalupe River on July 17, 1987.
