President Donald Trump toured the devastation left by flash flooding in central Texas amid growing questions about how local officials responded to the crisis as well as questions about the federal response -- including the fate of the Federal Emergency Management Agency -- that he has so far avoided.

The threat of heavy rain is “slight” for this weekend, but with the ground fully saturated in Kerr County even small amounts of rainfall could cause flooding.

FEMA records show Kerr County officials did not use FEMA’s system to send warnings to phones in the critical hours as the flooding began on July 4.

President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania will visit Kerrville on Friday, one week after Central Texas floods killed over 100 people.

Kerr County first tried to secure $1 million for a flood warning system in 2017, but could not. Could such a system have prevented loss of life on July 4?

State officials said rescue efforts in Central Texas following devastating flooding continue, emphasizing the state's continued commitment to recovery.

A Kerrville-area river authority executed a contract for a flood warning system that would have been used to help with emergency response, local officials said.

In the last nine years, federal funding for a system has been denied to the county as it contends with a tax base hostile to government overspending.

B’nai Torah Congregation in Boca Raton is leading a relief effort to support Central Texas flood victims through its TLC (Tzedakah, Learning & Chesed) program. Tzedakah is the Hebrew word for charitable giving, and chesed for mercy.

At a Wednesday morning press conference, Kerr County Sheriff Larry Leitha declined to answer a question about delayed emergency alerts, saying that an "after-action" would follow the search and rescue efforts. "Those questions are gonna be answered," he added.
