Description
The Fourth of July holiday has brought "major flooding" along the Guadalupe River in Kerrville, where 5 to 10 inches of rain has already fallen before sunrise during what's become a "life-threatening" situation, according to the National Weather Service. This is live coverage from our sister station, KENS 5 in San Antonio.
Kerrville authorities are urging that residents who live within 100 yards of the river "evacuate now" as water overtakes several streets in town. A reunification area has been set up at the Walmart at 2106 Junction Highway. More rainfall is expected due to extremely slow-moving storms in Kerr and Kendall counties, which remain under a Flash Flood Warning until 2 p.m.
