Many questions remain about how storms caught off guard an area prone to flooding and led to the second deadliest flood in Texas history. Here’s what we know. Flooding death toll increases to 132;

INGRAM, Texas — Search and rescue crews from Mexico were forced to halt their operations on the Guadalupe River in Ingram, Texas today as rain caused water levels to rise, complicating efforts to find victims of the deadly July 4th floods.

A large percentage of people still unaccounted for were probably visiting the area, Kerr County Judge Rob Kelly said.

Eight-year-old girls at sleep-away camp, families crammed into recreational vehicles, local residents traveling to or from work. These are some of the victims.

With more than 170 still missing, communities must reconcile how to pick up the pieces around a waterway that remains both a wellspring and a looming menace.

Maps show how heavy rainfall and rocky terrain helped create the devastating Texas floods that have killed more than 120 people.

As the water rises, so does the Kerr County community, especially one man who reunited a brother and sister, swept away in the flood.
