The Associated Press has assembled an approximate timeline of the 48 hours before, during and after the deadly flash flood, beginning with the activation of the state’s emergency response resources on July 2 — the same day Texas signed off on the camp’s emergency plan for disasters.

Texas Governor Greg Abbott says at least 109 people are dead and 161 people are still missing due to the catastrophic flooding that ravaged the Texas Hill Country. Kerr County officials were pressed today over why there is no county-wide siren system to warn people about natural disasters like flash flooding.

In the days after the devastating flood that killed dozens in Central Texas, local officials have deflected direct questions about preparations and warnings in advance of the storm that struck July Fo

Governor Greg Abbott said search and rescue efforts would continue in the wake of the deadly floods "until this job is finished".

Search and rescue operations are ongoing. State emergency personnel are aiding local search and rescue operations "around the clock" as they search for potential survivors in Texas, Gov. Greg Abbott said.
