Texas' new parental consent law leaves school nurses confused about which services they can provide to students The law’s authors urged districts to use “common sense.” But some nurses worry they could violate the law and face discipline for providing basic care without a parent’s approval.

Weather warnings gave officials a 3 hour, 21 minute window to save lives in Kerr County. What happened then remains unclear. Federal forecasters issued their first flood warning at 1:14 a.m. on July 4. Local officials haven’t shed light on when they saw the warnings or whether they saw them in time to take action.

In his first presser, Kerr Co Judge said they do not have an emergency alert system.

not only does the county have one, but 1st responders asked it be triggered early Fri am. Some didn't get alert until 6 hrs after the river began to rise. county officials won't answer why

why has it taken a week to get a federal disaster declaration??? abbott is so far up his butt bragging, he hasn't time to talk about the 20 agencies helping NOW and I'm the immediate aftermath

The search is not 100 square miles wide, lots of debris to cut thru while searching
Lots of different teams helping
More rain on the way as well ... So much damage

The predictions were way off due to nws staffing, and it happened at 4a with in an hour. The river rose 26 feet in an hour, they literally had nowhere to go unless you left the entire region. It rarely rains in July in Texas. So no, ppl didn't know. Sky be a jerk
