My email was kicked back also. Local tv stations in San Antonio are listing it as one of several benefit concerts.

River looks like an F5 tornado rolled through.
One of the local Houston stations did a comparison between an F5 tornado and the floodwaters in Kerrville. I don't know how accurate this is, but it's something to think about.

Buddy who is down there working says the biggest need right now is divers. They are apparently trying to team a dog team with a diver...which I imagine is as awful as it sounds.
Please repost if they need more divers.
More than 8 inches of rain has already fallen in the Hill Country as new flash flood warnings have been issued. Here's a look at the situation at 5:20 a.m.

I'm sure that this has been thought of, but if the divers need air they should hit up some H2S safety outfits. They typically have trailers with 10-16 300 cf tanks in an array and some with a compressor. I can't imagine an oilfield safety outfits that would not want to help out.
Not moving much. It's just sitting there dumping rain.

This is the group that was looking. Someone in their comments posted a name and number for another group looking.

When trying to describe what I saw in Wimberley during the response to that flood, I said it appeared like a F5 went down the middle of the river and wiped out everything for a quarter mile on either side

Llano River is now above flood stage per Hydromet site, Lake LBJ about to get a lot of water again , be careful out there. So far Flows only about 1/3 what they were last week but still a lot of water

I don't think anyone in their right mind could say that the Fed response is lacking. Incredible mobilization of resources.

To be clear, other state task forces are not part of the federal response. These occur under an EMAC, which is a state to state response. This is not to disparage the federal response, which has really been outstanding.

Wow. River up 8' in last 45 minutes. I hope everyone was prepared (as much as possible) for this one!

Not sure if helpful or already handled, but I would be happy to make a central google doc with tabs for search / cleaning etc crew coordination, supply needs, contact info, resources, carpooling, charities and maybe even a map of some sort showing covered areas, etc. Could add one of yall who's local as co-admin and get out of the way completely once it's up and running.
Can't be there in person, but have been following closely and more than happy to be a resource however I can. Also can build websites and do graphic design if at all useful.
Hi all, I made a public spreadsheet to help coordinate flood relief efforts in hill country (Hunt, Ingram, Comfort, etc). It's fully public and includes linked Google Forms that feed into the document automatically. Here's how it works:
Tabs + How to Use Them:
README tab Start here. It explains everything in plain terms.
Form Links tab Submit or offer help here. Includes:
1. Request Supplies
2. Volunteer Sign-Up
3. Offer Donations or Shelter
4. Log Areas You've Searched
5. Found Personal Items
Response Tabs (auto-filled) When someone fills out a form, their info appears in the corresponding tab below for volunteers to view and organize from.
I'm not local; just trying to help from a distance. If someone in the area with a Gmail wants to be the point person and take over ownership of the doc, I'll happily transfer it. Just respond here or DM me.

Were you ever able to get this in the hands of people looking for help? Spreadsheet is impressive and I know it could be helpful in organizing amidst all the chaos.
Now up almost 12 foot in 1 hour
Here is the Williamson County EMA team, part of Task Force 2:
We are proud to send three of our specialists to Texas to assist Tennessee Task Force 2 with flood response. Kate Brock is our K-9 Search and Rescue Officer, and Butch Coulter and Justin Rilling will provide comms support. Safe travels, everyone! https://t.co/qhSsxMpzCk

Just got a flood alert on my phone in Hunt. It's barely sprinkling Think most of the weather is north of us.
It is my experience that after the Federal disaster declaration, any of the 28 FEMA teams are now a Federal response. In truth, it's really all about who pays for it in the end.
Regardless, the Fed has essentially said, "Whatever you need, just let us know".

Not trying to hijack this thread about last week, but for people wanting to know how today compares to 9 days ago, I just looked back on the data and the river got up above 26' on the 4th. Currently it's at 16', which is still was above normal. Hopefully it doesn't get up into the totally bat**** crazy numbers again and screw up all the recovery going on.

I think someone posted about the George Strait concert yesterday, and their emails getting kicked back. Here is more info.
I gotta say, I am absolutely gobsmacked that the accepted donations for tickets start at $1,000. That seems shockingly low. Especially when they are only selling 1000 spots.

Saw a report of multiple vehicles swept off of 183 NW of Lampasas. 11 inches of rain.
Camp Mystic resources
A family member is a licensed professional counselor in Houston and years ago was a Mystic camper. A group of counselors from all over the state have put together a Google sheet of resources and references, the link is below. Many have connections to Camp Mystic and are offering their services pro bono. Hopefully this works and is helpful to you or someone you know.
God bless you all.

Hope their moving heavy equipment to higher ground
I'm down here and we got a warning before the rain hit Kerrville to get everyone and everything away from the river.
It is absolutely pouring right now.

Yeah. We are in the City West Church parking lot/staging area near Ingram. It's raining pretty good
The "vaqueros" are associated with this I believe. Knowing the little that I know about that somewhat private organization, The ticket revenue Will be completely eclipsed by other donations and fundraisers surrounding this event. These folks have Dave Chappelle money.
A lot of rain in Hunt right now.
As a Texan, I have always prayed for rain …
As a resident of central Kerr County, please pray along with me for the rain to stop

Praying for the rain to move on (end the stall) to other areas so the flooding will stop.
Dumping in Hunt again. They are telling people to get out of the river. Headed back to BCS. Hope to come back next weekend.

This. The Vaqueros are a good group with lots of financial backing. The guys I know involved in that organization are all great guys with big hearts.
Taking the kids and grandkids to Pappadeaux to celebrate Mary Grace's life and her being with the Lord.
And what we have learned from this is we are going to be much more intentional about getting together with the whole family. It is fun.
This is the day the Lord hath made, let us rejoice and be glad in it.

I can affirm that Camp Agape is legit. I actually have extended family that works for them. They are faith based.
Additionally, I used to work at a bereavement center, Bo's Place, which is also offering Camp Mystic specific support groups. I know The Warm Place is incredible as well.
I am grateful that those places exist, especially for children who grieve often differently, than what their parents expect. Giving them an opportunity to connect with other kids on a similar journey is so important.

I hope every single person on here understands the true reach that yall have achieved. I know the support, love and prayers from strangers near and far is nothing short of pure amazement.
