Plans for a flood warning system fell apart in Kerr County, leaving it vulnerable



The search for bodies continued nearly a week after deadly flooding in Texas. With 121 people confirmed dead and at least 161 still missing, officials there are facing scrutiny. The National Weather Service issued several watches and warnings before midnight on July 3, but local officials appeared unaware of the catastrophe until later in the morning. Amna Nawaz discussed more with Neena Satija.

Could one surmise that the lord gave man the brains to come up with what makes NOAA Tick, and that the lord would want us to use our brains to protect our fellow man. Just asking for democrats with attitudes.
