Gov. Greg Abbott vowed Tuesday to continue rescue efforts in the flood-ravaged Hill Country “until every missing person is accounted for”.

The death toll from the July Fourth flash flood that ravaged a swath of central Texas Hill Country rose on Tuesday to at least 109, many of them children, as search teams pressed on through mounds of mud-encrusted debris looking for scores of people still missing.

The death toll, as of Sunday at 10 p.m., of 81 fatalities, makes the Central Texas flash floods on July 4 the second-deadliest flood disaster in Texas history.

Kerrville Police Community Services Officer Jonathan Lamb gave a timeline of the deadly floods impacting the region in Texas and the response and evacuation efforts first responders took to save as many people as they could.
