Inundaciones en Kerr County dejan dos muertos y cientos de viviendas dañadas

Las autoridades de emergencia de Texas dijeron que el río Guadalupe se elevó rápidamente, provocando una muerte y obligando a evacuar y cerrar carreteras en el condado de Kerr, según WOAI. La Associated Press informó que lluvias intensas provocaron inundaciones repentinas en la zona de colinas, rescatar a más de 70 residentes y desplegar a más de 1 300 socorristas. La BBC señaló que el aumento del río recordó las mortales inundaciones del año pasado, con decenas de rescates. Posteriormente, CNN indicó que lluvias torrenciales en el centro sur de Texas causaron inundaciones que dejaron al menos dos muertos y más de 230 rescates mediante barcos, aviones y vehículos.

USA Today confirmó dos fallecimientos y el mismo número de rescates mientras los ríos alcanzaban niveles casi récord. KSAT reportó que un puente sobre el río Nueces en el condado de Uvalde colapsó tras más de 10 pulgadas de lluvia, provocando cierres de carreteras y confirmando al menos dos muertes relacionadas con la inundación. El gobernador Greg Abbott advirtió que el riesgo de inundaciones peligrosas sigue presente río abajo del Nueces, y Texas pasa de la fase de rescate a la de reconstrucción, según KERA News. KUT informó posteriormente que más de 490 viviendas y 100 negocios en el condado de Kerr resultaron dañados, con dos muertes registradas este año.
