Torrential rain has caused flash flooding in parts of central Texas, killing more than 20 people.

In Kerr County, more than 20 girls are missing from Camp Mystic, a private Christian summer camp located along a river that rose more than 20 feet in less than two hours. It “does not mean they are lost,” Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick cautioned, while Gov. Greg Abbott said that search and rescue operations will continue through the night. Throughout Kerr County, more than 230 people have been rescued or evacuated so far, many by helicopter, authorities said.

Some areas saw a month’s worth of rain in just a few hours overnight into Friday. Heavy rain is expected to continue Saturday.
