Summary
Southern Texas braces for another deadly flood as flash floods sweep through communities still reeling from last year’s devastation, claiming two lives and forcing hundreds into rescue boats. Rivers surged, with one gauge in Comfort rising 25 feet in an hour — worse than last year’s peak. Families, including those celebrating reunions, scrambled to evacuate as water swallowed streets and bridges. Videos show the raw power of the deluge — but thanks to early warnings and upgraded flood systems, rescues came faster, potentially saving countless lives. Governor Abbott says this disaster proves the hard lessons of 2023 are being heeded — and that vigilance, not complacency, is the only defense against nature’s fury.
