'Catastrophic flooding' turns deadly in Texas, some forced to evacuate
Heavy rain is pounding Kerr County, Texas, and the "catastrophic flooding" has turned deadly, sheriff's officials said. Up to 10 inches of rain was recorded Friday morning in Kerr County, about 60 miles north of San Antonio, with rainfall rates at one point reaching up to 4 inches per hour. A flash flood emergency has been issued. "The entire county is an extremely active scene," the Kerr County Sheriff's Office said on Friday. The sheriff's office confirmed fatalities but did not disclose how many. The city of Kerrville also said there are missing persons.

While most residents should avoid traveling, "those near creeks, streams, and the Guadalupe River should immediately move to higher ground," the sheriff's office warned. At a campground along the Guadalupe River, campers filmed videos of themselves evacuating in the middle of the night as they noticed flood water encroaching under their vehicle. Other videos showed cars and cabins submerged. "I was up all night keeping an eye on weather alerts. 2am there was a river flood warning. The river was a good distance from our site, so we thought we would be fine," one camper, Katie, told ABC News via Instagram. "At about 5:30am, we heard banging on our RV door, yelling for us to get out now. The Guadalupe River had risen rapidly. We got the kids in the truck and were prepared to leave our camper behind if need be. We were able to hook up our camper and get it out too." "The river was up to the back of our campsite when we left. The river was raging and you could hear trees and objects breaking," she said. "It was a very scary situation, but we are very blessed by the workers at the park for waking people up and getting us out of there. Praying for everyone affected by the flooding." City officials said "search and recovery efforts are ongoing and will increase as the waters recede." ABC News' Kenton Gewecke and Helena Skinner contributed to this report.

Southeast Coastal Low Develops For 4th Of July Weekend
Developing low off the Southeast coast. The National Hurricane Center is watching a low pressure system developing just off the southeastern coast of the United States. All week, forecast models indicated the possibility of a low pressure system forming to the east of Florida and potentially affecting Georgia and the Carolinas. It's looking better organized. Here's the latest information. Storm bands approaching the Southeast coast on July 4, 2025. National Weather Service radar is indicated that squall bands are starting to scrape the Georgia, South Carolina, and Florida coastlines. Satellite imagery also illustrates an emerging canopy of deep convective clouds with showers and thunderstorm about 100 miles off the northeast Florida coast. The National Hurricane Center wrote Friday morning, 'Environmental conditions are forecast to be marginally conducive for further development, and a short-lived tropical or subtropical depression could form late today or on Saturday while the system drifts northward.' Sea surface temperatures are relative warm under the storm, but the wind shear is less favorable for significant development. Whether it develops into a depression or not, the low is expected to move inland over the southeastern U.S. either Saturday night or early Sunday. The main impact of the system will be heavy rainfall, periodic lightning, and flooding. According to NOAA, an Air Force Reserve Hurricane Hunter aircraft will investigate the storm, currently being referred to as Invest 92L, later in the day. Current formation probabilities sit at 60 percent. Sea surface temperatures and wind shear conditions off the southeastern U.S. coast on July 4, 2025.
