As in Friday’s flooding, in 1987, five to 10 inches of rain fell in the upper headwaters of the Guadalupe River basin. In Hunt, Texas, where the Guadalupe River forks, over seven inches had fallen since Thursday afternoon, which was the highest total at the site since the early 1990s.
In the early morning hours of July 4th, torrential rains triggered flash flooding in central Texas. At least 120 people were killed, including dozens of children who were at summer camps along the Guadalupe River.
