Wild 4th of July about an hour and a half from here. A moving band of storms stalled over Kerville, washed away a girls Christian camp, at least 24 dead.

Trump signed the BILL yesterday am, they're already trying to blame this on him

Easy politics to play on a disaster. The USGS Natural Hazard budget, covering the Guadalupe river flood alert system, is cut 30% in the Big Beautiful Bill.
Texas as a state doesn't do much for warning systems. They created a very extensive study that explains what communities must build for themselves as Flood Early Warning Systems. It's why the Comal river has sirens at populated areas and the Guadalupe does not. Now some are calling for using the record surplus rainy day fund to build a system for rainy days.

Just like the California fires. A huge natural disaster that was pretty much unprecedented because of the weather involved.
California has a great system of warnings and weather forecast. Even the earthquake warning system works pretty well.

The storm was supposed to come through Houston and rain out our 4th. It just never showed up and paused over Kerr County for awhile.

Not at all like California.

I meant the politicizing of stuff. People LOVE to blame people, point fingers and use tragedies to make a political point. No class, no empathy and just stupid.

Oh. Yeah.

The flood happened because of surplus water. Water that California turned off and didn't use like it should have for the fires. End result, Texas got flooded by the surplus. Thanks a lot, assholes.
