More than 2,100 searchers from a dozen Texas Counties, other states and Mexico are continuing recovery efforts to find more victims of the deadly flash flooding in central Texas.

A study puts the spotlight on Texas as the leading U.S. state by far for flood-related deaths, with more than 1,000 of them from 1959 to 2019.

Texas leads the US in flood deaths due to its geography, population and risky behaviour, with experts suggesting that many fatalities, especially in cars, are preventable.

Sunday morning recovering efforts were suspended in Kerr County due to heavy rainfall and a new flash flood warning issued for the Hill Country.

At least 108 people have been killed in “catastrophic” flash flooding across Texas, while several others remain missing.
