NWS says Flash Flood Warnings were issued on July 3 and early July 4 in Central Texas, giving more than three hours of warning.

The deaths of scores of people from flash flooding in the state of Texas have raised questions about whether cuts to the U.S. National Weather Service impacted weather forecasting. U.S. President Donald Trump has rejected that suggestion.

After the death toll in the catastrophic flash floods in Texas reached at least 104 people, including 27 campers and counselors from Camp Mystic, an all girls camp, the Trump administration is explaining the series of warnings that were issued ahead of the floods.
