Texas community comes together amid deadly flooding
At least 59 people are dead in Central Texas after catastrophic flash floods swept away cars and homes in Kerr County. Despite dealing with a tragedy, a texas community comes together to help one another. LiveNOW from FOX host Christy Matino spoke to FOX 26 Houston reporter, Anthony Antione, on the latest.
Big picture view:
Unusually heavy rains quickly turned into flash flooding in the early hours of the Fourth of July in Central Texas, and flash flooding risks continuing into the weekend into the Austin area.
At least 78 people across the state were killed, and the death toll is likely to rise. Several more people were still unaccounted for Sunday and search operations were ongoing.
Gov. Greg Abbott warned that additional rounds of heavy rains lasting into Tuesday could produce more life-threatening flooding.
