The East Coast was slammed with torrential rain and flash flooding on Monday, turning streets into rivers, shutting down subways, stranding drivers, and prompting water rescues
The early warnings and alerts from the National Weather Service didn’t indicate a catastrophic flood was on its way.
A large percentage of people still unaccounted for were probably visiting the area, Kerr County Judge Rob Kelly said.
Meteorologists say incredible amounts of moisture in the air fueled a storm that moved slowly over central Texas, creating conditions for fatal flash floods.
The floods are expected to move west out of Central Texas later this week, but a dry weather pattern bring hot temperatures is predicted.
