Gov. Greg Abbott says 161 people remain missing after catastrophic Central Texas flooding, as the death toll climbs to 109 and search efforts intensify.

Kerr County officials provide an update Tuesday morning on the Central Texas flooding. Officials say 87 people have died in the county. Five campers and one counselor are still missing from Camp Mystic.

The loss of life is unimaginable. While we are still grappling with what happened, it’s important to understand the historic nature of this flood. It likely already ranks as the third-deadliest flood in Texas history.
