More than 111 people have died across six counties after flash flooding from heavy rain began affecting the state last week.

Multiple parts of Central Texas, including Kerr County, were shocked by flash floods Friday when the Guadalupe River and others rose rapidly.

TEGNA Texas created a new charitable fund raising money to support people impacted by devastating floods in Central Texas.

When the precipitation intensified in the early morning hours Friday, many people failed to receive or respond to flood warnings at riverside campsites known to be in the floodplain.

Plans to develop a flood monitoring system in the Texas county hit hardest by deadly floods were scheduled to begin only a few weeks later.
