Motorists rescued as new flash flood warnings hit Central Texas

Threat of additional rain leads to flash floods warnings in Central Texas

The National Weather Service has warned of thunderstorms capable of producing "excessive rainfall and potential flooding." As a result, Kerr County officials have asked rescuers to put a hold on search operations for the victims of the devastating floods that occurred in the Texas Hill Country region about a week ago.

Over the weekend, many motorists were rescued after driving into high water

The warning has also prompted officials to halt search operations for victims of the previous floods, which killed at least 132 people, with many still missing.
