Local and state reports indicate more than 1,200 homes suffered damage from this event, including more than 100 destroyed single-family and mobile homes. The counties reporting the most severe impact from the flooding are Bandera, Bexar, Llano, Starr and Travis. The American Red Cross reported two open shelters yesterday housing a total of 31 people. The shelters are located in Guadalupe and Medina counties. The Red Cross continues to operate two fixed and five mobile feeding sites in affected areas.
Some rivers continue to be monitored for potential new flooding.
The Frio River is of particular concern, according to the National Weather Service. Although the river is below flood stage along most of its length, the crest is forecast to pass through the town of Tilden, in McMullen County, on Saturday, June 28. Current projections show the river rising to a level that may affect several homes and businesses there. Major lowland flooding from the Nueces River will contribute to the problems in the flood plain around and below Tilden.
