Texas flooding updates: Over 130 dead as flash flood threat increases in Texas

Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said the Federal Emergency Management Agency response has quickly "streamlined" to help flooding victims.

"FEMA went to an enhanced level immediately. But as soon as you signed the major disaster declaration, we were able to get them resources and dollars right away, just like you envisioned, through state lot grants to help them with cleanup," Noem said to President Donald Trump at a Cabinet meeting.

At one point, Noem appeared emotional when she shared the story of visiting Camp Mystic, where she consoled several grieving family members.

She said she spoke to one counselor who "had hung on to some of these girls and was trying to keep them out of the floodwaters."

The counselor "had gotten hit by something and had lost two of the girls and wasn't able to hang on to them," Noem said. The counselor will "live the rest of her life thinking about that moment when she wasn't able to hang on to these girls," Noem said.

Trump said he and first lady Melania Trump will travel to Texas on Friday.

Eighty-seven people, including 30 children, have died in hard-hit Kerr County from the devastating flooding, Kerr County Sheriff Larry Leitha said Tuesday.

Five campers and one counselor from Camp Mystic are still missing, Leitha said.

The sheriff said he didn't have an estimate on the overall number of people still missing.

Police said they were not aware of a live rescue since Friday.

Search and rescue operations are ongoing.

Officials were grilled at the news conference about their response to the flooding Friday morning. The sheriff said he wasn't notified until between 4 and 5 a.m. and he didn't answer if the emergency manager was awake.

Mourners came together at a vigil in San Antonio to remember the lives lost in the devastating flooding.

The death toll has climbed to at least 104, including many young girls who were attending Camp Mystic.

Search efforts are ongoing.

Experts say parents shouldn't shy away from discussing the flooding and its impact with older children.
