3 Dead In San Antonio After Crash During Torrential Rain And Flash Flooding
At least 3 people died early Thursday morning after multiple vehicles crashed during heavy rain and flooding in San Antonio, Texas. According to local reports, one person was killed in the crash on Loop 410, two others died when they were swept away by floodwaters. Witnesses said multiple vehicles had been swept away and first responders were trying to locate them.
San Antonio has been inundated with more than 6 inches of rain since midnight. That's more than the average rainfall in June and July combined.
Local reports showed vehicles across the city trapped in high water overnight, and the city confirmed that multiple water rescues were happening. Many cars were seen covered by water or floating along Interstate 35.
The flooding shut down more than two dozen roads in San Antonico and city officials urged people not to attempt to drive across flooded streets. Across Bexar County, the National Weather Service reported that 40 low water crossings were closed along with several others in Comal and Hays counties.
The storms knocked out power to more than 57,000 customers across Texas, according to PowerOutage.us.

How much rain has fallen so far in Minnesota this week?
How much rain has fallen so far in Minnesota this week? originally appeared on Bring Me The News. Friday brought more rain to Minnesota, with totals in excess of six inches being documented in parts of the state. A system bringing tracks of consistent moderate-to-heavy rain has been making its way across the state during the course of Thursday and Friday, with central Minnesota seeing the heaviest amounts. Rain is expected to continue for the next several days, with the National Weather Service noting that flooding, perhaps even flash flooding, is a risk through midweek. Sign up for our BREAKING WEATHER newsletters Here's a look at the latest totals, based on readings provided to the Community Collaborative Rain, Hail and Snow Network. Numbers show rain totals between Tuesday and 4 p.m. Friday 4.52 inches – Willmar 4.07 inches – Annandale 3.76 inches – Appleton 3.53 inches – Glencoe 3.47 inches – Montevideo 3.29 inches – Spicer 3.09 inches – Frontenac 3.08 inches – Lester Prairie 2.94 inches – Hutchinson, Dassel 2.88 inches – Fairmont 2.87 inches – Kandiyohi 2.86 inches – Welch 2.84 inches – Watertown 2.83 inches – Darwin 2.77 inches – Benson 2.72 inches – Atwater, Silver Lake, Chokio 2.64 inches – Litchfield, Cannon Falls 2.63 inches – Avon 2.62 inches – Morris 2.57 inches – Minneapolis 2.56 inches – Delano 2.55 inches – Eden Valley, New London 2.54 inches – Hancock 2.49 inches – Pennock, Howard Lake 2.42 inches – Red Wing 2.41 inches – Paynesville, 2.40 inches – Renville 2.38 inches – Northfield 2.36 inches – Ortonville 2.35 inches – Randolph, Dawson, Bird Island You can find more totals by clicking here. However, locations just south of Willmar, in southern Kandiyohi County, have received nearly double than what has been recorded in Willmar. If you're weather savvy and check radar apps for estimated rainfall totals, you'll see astonishing totals between 15-20 inches of rain in those areas. But rest assured, the numbers are significantly inflated because the technology can't give a true measurement. For example, the WeatherWise app, as seen below, suggests a radar estimate of nearly 19 inches of rain in rural Kandiyohi County. It's wrong. The real totals in that area, according to the National Weather Service, is more likely to 7-8 inches with some localized 9-inch amounts (which is still a lot!). The RadarScope app, which is popular among storm chasers, is showing similarly insane rain totals. "Our line of thinking is that the dual-pol estimated precipitation from the radar is vastly overdone by almost double what is actually on the ground," the National Weather Service in the Twin Cities told Bring Me The News. There are no flood warnings in the area despite the significant rain, and as of noon Friday the weather service had only been informed of "nuisance street ponding" in Willmar," with "little to speak of in the hard hit rural areas." This story was originally reported by Bring Me The News on Jun 13, 2025, where it first appeared.

Bonnaroo 2025 Canceled Due to Severe Weather: ‘We Are Beyond Gutted'
After issuing an evacuation notice to attendees earlier Friday (June 13), the remainder of the 2025 Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival has now been canceled due to severe weather. The Manchester, Tennessee, festival shared the news on social media around 7:30 p.m. local time Friday, saying that the updated forecast was showing unsustainable conditions for on-site campers as heavy thunderstorms ripped through the area. More from Billboard Bonnaroo Tells Attendees to Evacuate As Severe Weather Approaches Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce Head to Florida for Stanley Cup Final Twenty One Pilots Drop New Single, 'The Contract,' Detail North American Tour Dates 'Today, the National Weather Service provided us with an updated forecast with significant and steady precipitation that will produce deteriorating camping and egress conditions in the coming days,' the statement reads. 'We are beyond gutted, but we must make the safest decision and cancel the remainder of Bonnaroo. We are going to make things right with you, and you will find refund information at the end of this message, but let's start with the next steps.' The message goes on to suggest that any campers whose sites are in decent shape or who are safely inside an RV consider camping overnight to prioritize evacuating those festivalgoers in the roughest situations. 'The number one thing we need from the Bonnaroo community is patience,' the message reads. 'Some of your fellow campers' sites are in rough shape. The rain has settled in areas and made certain parts of Outeroo difficult to manage. We'd like to prioritize getting those folks as well as those with accessibility needs off The Farm as soon as possible this evening. To do this, we ask that if your campsite is in good shape or if you're in an RV or pre-pitched accommodation, please consider spending the night with us and we'll start working to get you out of here safely tomorrow.' The festival wrapped its message by reiterating how 'crushed' organizers are to make this decision. 'We have put our hearts and souls into making this weekend the most special one of the year, and cannot express how crushed we are to have to make this decision. Thank you in advance for your patience, your positivity and your unfailing Bonnaroovian spirit.' As promised, the post ends with refund details, spelling out what tickets and parking passes will be refunded in full and what will be returned in part since Thursday's day 1 went off without a hitch. Find the full refund details in the second slide below: Bonnaroo kicked off Thursday with performances from Luke Combs, Dom Dolla, Insane Clown Posse and Rebecca Black. Friday night's headliners were scheduled to be Tyler, The Creator, John Summit and Glass Animals; Saturday's lineup was led by Olivia Rodrigo, Avril Lavigne and Justice; and Sunday would have wrapped up with Hozier, Vampire Weekend and Queens of the Stone Age.
