Episode Details

Texas braces for the next phase after devastating floods: rebuilding. Governor Abbott calls this year’s deluge worse than last year’s, with property damage soaring — but credits early warnings and sirens for saving lives. The Guadalupe River surged with unprecedented force, as last year’s floods stripped away natural buffers that once slowed the water. In Kerr County alone, nearly 500 homes and 100 businesses are damaged, with crews now racing to clear debris, fix roads and bridges, and provide temporary housing. But danger lingers downstream in Cotulla and Uvalde, where floodwaters continue to move — prompting emergency teams to evacuate and protect critical infrastructure. As the state mobilizes resources, lessons from past disasters are being applied to help communities rise stronger.
