Dozens of people have died after heavy rain pounded Kerr County, Texas, early Friday, leading to "catastrophic" flooding, the sheriff said.

The risk of life-threatening flooding is still high in central Texas with more rain on the way. Searchers now have found 68 bodies in Kerr County, where a wall of water came down the Guadalupe River.

A county sheriff in 2016 recalled how he pulled “kids out of trees” in summer camps as leaders debated a siren system for years.
