Rep. Chip Roy, R-Texas, shared photos Saturday of the damage to Camp Mystic, taken during a helicopter tour following the flood.

Buildings appeared to be either completely washed away, or reduced to rubble.

I thought the flooding we had here a few weeks ago, in which 9 died, was horrendous. This is beyond comprehension.  **nononono*

The total number of people who have lost their lives in the devastating floods has risen to 43. There are 28 adults and 15 children.

Which is why I am always looking for the exit in canyon country (but I scope that out most anyplace, just out of habit).

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

As noted above, there were warnings - so the leftists trying to blame this on Trump can just eat rocks and die.  (No, I didn't know we had a National Water Center at NOAA, but here we are).

The NWS National Water Center started issuing flood hazard advisories for Texas back on July 1st.

In Texas Hill Country, where flash floods are common, questions linger about lack of warnings

Kristi Noem, the Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, said although she does not oversee the NWS, she said the timeline she received from them stated that alerts about flash flooding in Central Texas began at 1:18 p.m. on Thursday, July 3.

“On July 3rd at 1:18 p.m., a flood watch was issued, although it was moderate, it wasn’t to the extremes that it was, that when the system came over the area that it stalled, it was much more water that much like I think we experienced during Harvey... the same type of system that was unpredictable in the way that it reacted and the way that it stopped right here and dumped unprecedented amounts of rain that caused a flooding event like this,” Noem said.

The initial flood watch sent by NWS on Thursday predicted rain amounts of between 5 to 7 inches. Weather messaging from the office, including automated alerts delivered to mobile phones to people in threatened areas, grew in the early morning hours of Friday, urging people to move to higher ground and evacuate flood-prone areas, said Jason Runyen, a meteorologist in the National Weather Service office.

  Rain in Central Texas began to fall around midnight on July 4, and, according to reports, the first flash flood warning issued by NWS was at 1:14 a.m. Friday.

The most serious warnings came around 4 a.m. when NWS issued a flash flood emergency warning of an “extremely dangerous and life-threatening situation,” urging immediate evacuations to higher ground.................

The flooding came amid concerns about staffing levels at the NWS, after the Trump administration fired hundreds of meteorologists this year as part of Elon Musk’s DOGE cuts.

Between 2 and 7 a.m., the Guadalupe River in Kerrville rose from 1 to more than 34 feet in height, according to a flood gauge in the area. The flooding reached its peak at around 6:45 a.m. in Kerrville, hours after warnings were first issued, according to the gauge..

I'm sorry if this offends anyone but anyone who lives or operates a business in the Texas hill country has seen this kind of thing happen so many times they should know by now what can happen. Going to bed and hoping for the best is patently irresponsible warnings or no warnings!

With that being the case, I would think that any sort of warning along that river should draw some serious attention, especially if you are responsible for the lives of children.

It's much the same wherever, only with different hazards.

 Hurricane country, you keep an eye on things and either prepare to hunker down or batten the hatches and bug out.

Out here, if someone warns of a blizzard, you check the pantry (should already be stocked), plug the car in and make sure you have gas for the snowthrower. Don't plan on traveling (though I have, more than once, with winter gear to survive being outside for a while if it came to that).

I have lived in the hills in Virginia, and you don't screw around in the bottoms when a "toad drownder" rolls up the holler--you go to higher ground.
I always watched the sky before going into any of the tight canyons out west, and never felt comfortable in those, even if I could see a ready escape route.
And never, ever, drive into moving water if you value your life.

As it happens I was in San Antonio this past week, my phone was constantly buzzing with flash flood warnings. People claiming that the NWS didn’t let people know there was flooding imminent/happening are lying to you for political points on the backs of dead children

There are very few things that get me angry in politics. I try to keep things light and not take things too seriously.
But the people who are glossing over the deaths of children during an ongoing search-and-rescue operation to take baseless political shots are sick.

Catastrophic flooding leaves at least 65 dead, dozens missing

Published July 5, 2025 7:19am EDT Updated July 6, 2025 11:14am EDT

Catastrophic flooding leaves at least 65 dead, dozens missing as 'deadly flood wave' swept central Texas

"It's catastrophic, the damage that we're already seeing," FOX Weather Meteorologist Bayne Forney said. "Even though the water has been receding, we're now seeing a lot more of that damage opening up. Just behind me is the foundation of what used to be a home. The entire home was swept away. All that is left is the foundation and the front porch. That's it. It's a scene we're seeing all across this town... it's just devastating."

As the Death Toll Rises in Texas, Democrats Choose to Be Black-Souled, Evil Ghouls
By Bonchie  | 10:09 PM on July 05, 2025
 
The tragic news out of Texas continues to get worse as the death toll from a flash flood has risen to 51, including at least 15 children. Over two dozen girls from a summer camp in the area remain unaccounted for, with the search-and-rescue effort continuing in the night. Sadly, the chances of finding more people alive diminish by the hour, and the situation is likely to become even more heartbreaking over the next few days.
 

Having younger children myself, I simply can't fathom what the impacted families are going through. My prayers are with them, and I can continue to hope for more people to be found alive. Certainly, this is not a time to try to take ghoulish political jabs based on what has occurred, and given the unpreventable nature of a flash flood, I'd argue there will never be a time for that.

Unfortunately, multiple Democrats have decided to eschew any empathy in pursuit of selfish partisan gain. Ron Filipowski, editor of the left-wing outlet Meidas Touch, posted this on Saturday.

Most of us in Texas have done the Guadalupe "tube-ing" thing.  My last visit I guess was about back in about 1978. I can remember seeing the steep embankments you see much alone the course, and wondered what would happen in heavy rain event.

 I worry that the death toll mostly counts are coming from organized camps and events.  No telling how many are uncounted  by people (like we did) as a spur of the moment holiday outing.

What a sick, twisted, ball of racist hate.

There's something this lady doesn't get. When I was a First Responder, it simply did not matter what color you are, who you voted for--any of that. A missing child is a missing child. Every one of them gone missing is a tragedy for their loved ones, regardless of race, creed, or color, or any of that other stuff.
That this woman would spew her racism in the face of this tragedy is despicable.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

There’s hardly ANY sleep for these guys. They’re running off Red Bull and the sheer determination to continue saving lives.

It’s incredibly inspiring to see.

When did it become okay to spew this hate?  How do we allow this?  Seriously --- where's the outrage?
