At least 110–118 people have died, with over 100 confirmed fatalities across multiple counties, and 109 is the accepted current count
Around 161 individuals remain missing, primarily in Kerr County where authorities are still searching along a 30–60 mile stretch of the Guadalupe River
Kerr County suffered the worst toll—87 to 94 deaths and 161 missing—reflecting the perilous flash flood conditions
Camp Mystic, a girls’ summer camp, was especially hard-hit: 27 campers and staff died, and five campers plus one counselor are still unaccounted for
Rescue efforts have transitioned from saving lives to recovery and identification, with hundreds of responders and specialized teams at work on treacherous, debris-filled terrain
Officials—including Governor Greg Abbott and legislators—have committed to convening a special legislative session starting July 21 to overhaul flood preparedness, improve alert systems, and learn lessons from response gaps
The heavy rainfall—up to 15 inches in a few hours—caused the Guadalupe River to surge some 30–34 ft in less than four hours, overwhelming natural defenses in the region known as "Flash Flood Alley"
Initial fracture in alert systems drew criticism: National Weather Service issued a warning at 1:14 a.m. on July 4, but local officials said they received it hours later, leading to questions about delays
This has become one of Texas’s deadliest floods in recent history, rivaling—or surpassing—the toll from Hurricane Harvey
