homes lost, kids in church camps missing. catastrophic flooding in the Brady, Junction, Fredricksburg area and more rain still falling. please pray for these folks. that area cant handle much rain and with over 15-18 inches having fallen in the past 36 hours, gonna get much worse I am afraid.

Guadalupe River rose 22' in 3 hours. Some of the worst flooding ever in the Kerrville area. frown

My goodness. I have just now prayed that our God will see to it that all down there will receive what they need.


I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

The fairly vast drainages that into the Guadalupe are stone- either granite or limestone meaning there is basically no soil to absorb a large rainfall. It all runs off and flash floods can be shockingly quick and high in the Hill Country.

I've been through one flash flood and lost my home in 2007. That was nothing like what those people in Texas are dealing with though. That has to be terrifying to go through.

I can't even imagine this agony. So many families will never observe the Fourth of July the same way again.

Camp Mystic, the Christian Camp where the 23 girls are missing from, had 750 campers at it. It's got to to be terrible there. I hope they find them unharmed.

Just looking at video of the area is this the parts of the west where you might be dry but a storm miles away can send a wall of water? I ask because it doesn't look to be well watered country like here.

Correct, rainfall could be many miles away and you would never guess a wall of water was coming

Keep praying, please keep praying.

That area is one of the biggest summer 4th of July attractions in Texas. Lots of school camps, campers, tents, and kiddos everywhere now and all along the river.
We had a 20% chance of rain yesterday.

So sad that nature can be so unpredictable .
Had cousins in that area, lost their home a few years ago.
Prayers for everyone in that area.
God be with all of them!
