No injuries or deaths are immediately reported, but officials say an unknown number of people are unaccounted for

The Village of Ruidoso in New Mexico confirmed that three people, including a 4-year-old girl, 7-year-old boy and man in his 40s-50s, were killed in flash floods that occurred on Tuesday, July 8.

The resort village of Ruidoso was under a flash flood emergency as slow-moving storms left people trapped in homes and prompted water rescues.

Rivers across central Texas, the Concho Valley and Hill County are rising after another night of heavy rain touched off flash floods, just over a week after the area was devastated by a July 4 deluge that killed at least 120 people and left many more missing.

A study puts the spotlight on Texas as the leading U.S. state by far for flood-related deaths, with more than 1,000 of them from 1959 to 2019.

The floods that swept south central Texas last week have killed at least 120 people, with 160 still missing. First responders have had to navigate piles of debris as they search through the wreckage for survivors.

The threat of heavy rain is “slight” for this weekend, but with the ground fully saturated in Kerr County, even small amounts of rainfall could cause flooding.
