At least two people have died as “life-threatening” flooding takes hold in south-central Texas, where up to 28in of rain has already fallen in some areas – just a year after the same region endured catastrophic flooding that killed more than 100 people.
Flash-flood emergencies were issued on Thursday for parts of Kerr and Uvalde counties, where emergency crews performed water rescues, and areas around the Guadalupe River and the Pedernales River, according to morning updates from the National Weather Service (NWS).
