The State Flood Plan, published last year, identified $54 billion in flood mitigation, warning and data needs. The state has awarded around $660 million since the plan was published, with a special legislative session coming soon.

After a tragedy, records from local archives can help us understand how a community understands itself. Here’s some of what we learned following the devastating July 4 flooding in Texas.

Most of the reported deaths in the July 4 floods occurred in Kerr County, Texas, along the Guadalupe River. Here's how the flooding progressed, according to an analysis from Floodbase, a data company that works with insurers:

New flood warnings have been issued along the Guadalupe River in Texas less than two weeks after flooding killed more than 100 people.

Flood Warnings are in effect for many Texas rivers following heavy rains over the last couple of weeks. The NWS is reminding everyone to turn around, don't drown when encountering flooded roads as most flood deaths occur in vehicles.
