Bloomberg</p><p>"...The tragic news out of central Texas has been heartbreaking, but it’s also been maddening — because so many lives could have been saved if elected officials had done their jobs. They owe the families who lost loved ones — the death toll from the Fourth of July floods is now at more than 100 — more than thoughts and prayers. They owe them a sincere commitment to righting their deadly wrong, by tackling the problem they’ve turned their backs on for too long: climate change...."</p><p><a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2025-07-08/michael-bloomberg-texas-floods-made-worse-by-climate-denialism?accessToken=eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJzb3VyY2UiOiJTdWJzY3JpYmVyR2lmdGVkQXJ0aWNsZSIsImlhdCI6MTc1MTk4OTcxMCwiZXhwIjoxNzUyNTk0NTEwLCJhcnRpY2xlSWQiOiJTWjJQMExEV0xVNjgwMCIsImJjb25uZWN0SWQiOiJFM0UxQUQyNDNBRTg0RENFQURFMzVEOEZCNkFENEZCNyJ9.PNbSNcF0pZHn7RnByuLRWKEzmhNergt8qs9lMWevMGE" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">bloomberg.com/opinion/articles</span><span class="invisible">/2025-07-08/michael-bloomberg-texas-floods-made-worse-by-climate-denialism?accessToken=eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJzb3VyY2UiOiJTdWJzY3JpYmVyR2lmdGVkQXJ0aWNsZSIsImlhdCI6MTc1MTk4OTcxMCwiZXhwIjoxNzUyNTk0NTEwLCJhcnRpY2xlSWQiOiJTWjJQMExEV0xVNjgwMCIsImJjb25uZWN0SWQiOiJFM0UxQUQyNDNBRTg0RENFQURFMzVEOEZCNkFENEZCNyJ9.PNbSNcF0pZHn7RnByuLRWKEzmhNergt8qs9lMWevMGE</span></a></p><p><a href="https://m.ai6yr.org/tags/disasters" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>disasters</span></a> <a href="https://m.ai6yr.org/tags/disaster" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>disaster</span></a> <a href="https://m.ai6yr.org/tags/TXwx" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TXwx</span></a> <a href="https://m.ai6yr.org/tags/climateemergency" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>climateemergency</span></a> <a href="https://m.ai6yr.org/tags/climate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>climate</span></a></p>

Heavy rains can quickly result.in high walls of fast-moving water with great destructive potential.

AI6YR Ben<p>June 30 to July 2nd, 1936</p><p>"A very heavy rain fell over the upper Guadalupe River Basin, west of Korrville, from June 30 to July 2. This rein amounted to over 36 inches 1in about 36 hours at the State Pish Hatchery above Ingram. Record-break- ing stages were experienced on all streams above Kerrville, and on the Guadalupe River to a point below Spring Branch. Along the streams in the hills above Kerrville are many sumer homes, resorts, and camps for boys and girls. Most of these places were damaged by the floods, many of them being almost completely destroyed. There was much apprehension for the safety of the people in these camps, especially for the younger boys and girls, but fortunately all were safe. The fact that the flood occurred in the day rather than at night no doubt accounts for no loss of 1ife in the camps.
