In US, the risk level for flooding rain in parts of central Texas has been upgraded from a level 2-of-4 to a level 3-of-4. According to the Weather Prediction Center, the upgraded area includes parts of hard-hit Kerr County and portions of the Guadalupe and Llano river basins. Authorities said, at least 82 people have died and while more than 40 people remain missing after devastating floods hit central Texas. US President Donald Trump said yesterday he is planning to visit Texas on Friday, hours after signing a major disaster declaration, unlocking key federal resources as search and rescue efforts continue. Kerr County, the hardest hit among 20 affected counties in the region, alone accounts for at least 68 of the fatalities, including 21 children.
