Texas floods the death of death climbs to more than 100

The death rate of lightning floods, which hit central Texas on Friday, is now climbing to more than 100 people and there are no unknown number of others.

Search and rescue teams move through muddy river shores as more rain and thunderstorms threaten the region, but hope fades to find more surviving four days after the crash.

Camp Mystic, a summer camp of Christian all girls, confirmed that at least 27 girls and employees are among the dead. Ten girls and camp advisor are still missing.

Meanwhile, the White House has rejected proposals that reducing the budget of the National Meteorological Service (NWS) may prevent the disaster response.

At least 84 of the victims – 56 adults and 28 children – were killed in Kerr, where the Guadalupe River was swollen by tricky pours before Daybreak on Friday, the fourth official holiday of July.

About 22 adults and 10 children have not yet been identified, said the office of the county sheriff.

Camp Mystic said in a statement on Monday: “Our hearts are broken with our families who withstand this unthinkable tragedy.”

Richard Eastland, a 70-year-old, co-owner and director of Camp Mystic, died, trying to save the children, Austin American-Statesman reported.

Local pastor del Way, who knows Eastland’s family, told the BBC: “The whole community will miss him (G -n Eastland). He died a hero.”

In its latest forecast, NWS predicts more slowly moving thunderstorms, potentially bringing more flash floods to the region.

Trump administration critics have tried to associate the disaster with thousands of job cuts at the NWS parent agency, the National Ocean Administration and the atmosphere.

The NWS service responsible for the forecast in the region had five duty officials, as thunderstorms were prepared over Texas on Thursday night, the usual night change number when a lot of time was expected.

White House press secretary Carolyn Levitt has rejected attempts to blame the president.

“It was the act of God,” she told a daily briefing on Monday.

“It is not the guilt of the administration that the flood struck when it happened, but there were early and consistent warnings and again the National Meteorological Service did its job.”

She outlined that NWS’s office in Austin-san Antonio had briefeds for local employees on the eve of the flood and sent a flood clock that afternoon before issuing numerous flood warnings this night and in the lanes of July 4.

Trump, who was expected to visit Texas later this week, was pushed back when he was asked on Sunday if the federal government cuts had prevented the disaster response, initially emerging that he was focused on what he called the “creation of Biden”, referring to his democratic predecessor.

“But I wouldn’t blame Biden either,” he added. “I would just say it’s a 100-year crash.”

Texas Senator Ted Cruz, a Republican, told a press conference on Monday that it is not the moment for a “guerrilla-point finger targeting” now.

A local campaign, Nicole Wilson, has a petition calling for factory sirens to be created in Kerr County – something in other cities.

A similar system has been discussed in Kerr County for almost a decade, but funds have never been allocated.

Texas Lt Gov Dan Patrick admitted on Monday that such sirens may have saved their lives and said they should be in place until next summer.

Meanwhile, condolences continued to pour from all over the world.

King Charles III wrote to President Trump to express his “deep sadness” about the catastrophic flood.

The King “offered his deepest sympathy to those who have lost loved ones, said the British Embassy in Washington.
