The news keeps getting worse in Central Texas. A new report has revealed that the death toll from the floods in Central Texas has reached above 90. Previously, it was reported that 46 people died in the flood, but that number has since skyrocketed as search and rescue teams are finding bodies that were taken away by the Guadalupe River. USA Today provided the latest details on the death toll: Rescue teams in central Texas scoured storm-ravaged terrain Monday for signs of life as the death toll from last week’s catastrophic flooding rose to at least 90 and bouts of heavy rain battered hard-hit areas. Among the dead were at least 27 children and counselors from Camp Mystic, a beloved all-girls summer camp in Kerr County, where the worst of the flooding broke out. At least 10 girls and one counselor remain missing, Kerr County Sheriff Larry Leitha said at a news conference Monday. “Texas is grieving right now. The pain, the shock of what has transpired these last few days has broken the heart of our state,” said Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas. Cruz said he was heartbroken by the loss of children at Camp Mystic, describing it as “every parent’s nightmare.” There were about 700 children at the camp when relentless rain caused the nearby Guadalupe River to surge over 26 feet in less than an hour on Friday, Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick said There were about 700 children at the camp when relentless rain caused the nearby Guadalupe River to surge over 26 feet in less than an hour on Friday, Texas Lt. Gov.

As rescuers resumed searches for missing people by air, land and water, officials warned those in central Texas that there remains a danger of “life-threatening flooding.” Multiple flash flood warnings were active across the Hill Country as storms drenched the region, inundating roads and waterways.

In an email sent out Saturday, the state disaster office told partners the number of dead would surpass 100, two different sources confirmed to Daily Mail. The estimate of the dead is vastly different than the message state officials are projecting publicly, insisting that they are still searching for people who are alive, and refusing to say rescue efforts have shifted to recovery of remains. ‘Our state assets and local partners are continuing to search for live victims,’ the head of TDEM W. Nim Kidd told reporters at a press conference Saturday. ‘Our hope and prayer is that there is still people alive that are out there.’ As of Sunday morning, 69 had been confirmed dead, and 11 girls and one counselor from Camp Mystic are missing. Of the dead, 46 are adults and 21 are children, local officials said. Additionally, DNA testing will be used to help identify the remains of the flood victims, a state source told Daily Mail. 90+ dead from floods in Texas.
