Deadly Flooding Hits Uvalde County Again, One Year After Catastrophic Flash Floods

At least two people have died as severe flooding returned to Uvalde County, Texas — where more than 130 perished in flash floods last summer. Bodycam footage released July 17 shows helicopter airlifts of families from destroyed homes. The recurrence, despite a rapid multi-agency response, fuels pressure on Texas to maintain a permanent flood-response posture rather than mobilize reactively.
