I see that in Texas there are 24 people dead due to flash flooding along the Guadalupe. Also 20 girls from a girls camp in the same general area are missing.

Sad news. I hope none of the posters here have connections to the dead and/or missing.

I have no connection but it's truly tragic news indeed.  Heartbreaking.  I've attended some of those camps along the Guad when I was a kid.  It's a beautiful area.  I can't even imagine sending my kids away for a week, to have fun in the outdoors, and then never see them again.  It's just devastating.

My esposita has a friend who attended Camp Mystic. It would have been about the time when the future Laura Bush was a counselor there.
At least 3 EMS operations in the Tulsa area have sent teams to join in the rescue and recovery operation. But I'm afraid there's not much chance of rescue at this point.

Reports just out say two girls were rescued from a tree 27 feet off the ground. There is still hope.

Not sure if verified--I heard a report yesterday that the death toll had risen past 70, or at least presumed dead.

SMDH.  Now they're saying the reports were untrue.  Either misinformation, lies, or a rumor that grew wings quickly.

I think it was a Facebook rumor and/or a mom text string rumor.  Wishful thinking but it's hard to blame people for wanting to have some hope.

It's all just so devastating.

Somebody probably caught the last 3/4 of "The bodies of two girls have been found in a tree 27 feet above the ground." And told some people who told some other people . . . .

It's just a terrible situation all around. The people whose lives have been directly affected by the loss of life probably number in the tens of thousands. Friends, relatives, people at school, at work, at church.

Yeah, 3 degrees of separation and all that.  I still haven't heard of anyone I know who was directly affected, but I have no doubt that I have friends of friends who were.
