Over 100 people have died after heavy rain pounded Kerr County, Texas, early Friday, leading to "catastrophic" flooding, the sheriff said.

A public backlash is enveloping Kerr County over the local steps taken after the National Weather Service warned of a potential catastrophe.

As of 6:25 p.m. on Wednesday, 96 people — 60 adults and 36 children — are dead after Hill Country flooding, Kerr County officials said.

Richard “Dick” Eastland, the owner and director of Camp Mystic in Kerr County, Texas, died while helping campers get to safety during the devastating floods that impacted the area last week. Eastland, who was the third generation from his family to manage the camp, was 74.

Traditional summer camps are, by design, exposed to nature. As climate change makes summers more intense, how much should parents worry?

Officials reported at least 84 bodies recovered across Kerr and Kendall counties on Monday. That number is expected to grow.

Kerr County officials said Wednesday that their priority is to continue to search for missing people and get families closure as recovery efforts continue across Hill Country following the deadly floods.
