A 20-foot wall of water rushed downstream, leading to the deaths of more than 100 people in six counties – Kerr, Burnet, Travis, Kendall, Williamson and Tom Green.
Among the dead were dozens of children, many of whom were young girls at a summer camp and sleeping when the disaster unfolded.
As hundreds of people continue search and rescue operations both on the ground and in the air, a new flash flood threat has emerged.

"Today, it won’t take much to cause some flash flooding," FOX Weather Meteorologist Craig Herrera said. "Please make sure that you’ve got your FOX Weather app downloaded and your phone charged so that you get notifications when they come in."
According to the FOX Forecast Center, rounds of heavy precipitation and thunderstorms are expected to continue across south-central Texas through at least Tuesday, with new Flood Watches and Flood Warnings in place through at least Monday night.
Downstream river and lake flooding is also expected to continue over the next several days.
Storms that develop across portions of Texas will be capable of producing more flash flooding very quickly given how saturated the ground is in the wake of the catastrophe.

"There’s a lot of moisture to work with today over the area," Herrera continued. "A lot is getting squeezed out. And while the rainfall isn’t expected to be quite as heavy, again, it’s only going to take a little bit to cause some potential flooding."
While the first rivers to flood, such as the Guadalupe River, have already reached their peak crests, the flooding will continue downstream.

In fact, the FOX Forecast Center said that the Guadalupe River in Bloomington, Texas, more than 200 miles downstream from Hunt, Texas, is not forecast to reach minor flood stage until at least Wednesday.
NOAA’s Weather Prediction Center (WPC) placed a large portion of south-central Texas in a flash flood threat zone Monday. Many communities impacted by the deadly flooding over the holiday weekend have been placed in a Level 3 out of 4 flash flood threat.
