Follow for live updates in the Texas flooding as the death toll rises to 120, as rescue operations start to shift to recovery phase

At least 119 people have been found dead in nearly a week since heavy rainfall overwhelmed the river and flowed through homes and youth camps in the early morning hours of July 4. Ninety-five of those killed were in the hardest-hit county in central Texas, Kerr County, where the toll includes at least three dozen children.

As questions swirl surrounding the timeline of who was notified about the flooding when, and if more could have been done, Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said an alert from the National Weather Service was sent to people in the flood zone -- but she said that doesn’t mean that people heard it.
