@pbsnews: FEMA missed major flood risks at Camp Mystic in Texas, new analysis reveals The search for more than 100 people still missing from the catastrophic July 4 flash floods in Texas began its second week Saturday. Officials have rejected suggestions that the calamity could have been anticipated, but an analysis by NPR and PBS Frontline suggests otherwise. John Yang speaks with Laura Sullivan, an NPR investigative correspondent, to learn more. #pbsnews #newshour #pbsnewshour #news#fema #texas#campmystic#flood#texasfloods
I’ll trust NPR & PBS over Texas or Trump officials

GenXer! 🆘️🇺🇸 :
This has happened before. They denied money from Biden because he's a Democrat. They ended up taking the money, only so that blue states wouldn't receive the money. Then gave it to the police department, you know to fight the illegals. Then, it was the Mexicans that showed up to help! I'm so tired of Texas!

they don't have the funding to update the map essentially. no $ to do the field work, research, equipment, etc

yes it could have been better predicted. it may not have saved every life but highly possible less would have died

I guess we should all look at the risks in our own areas. we cannot count on anyone else

My question is, how do you know if you’re buying From a flood area when the map from fema or that company is not showing that?

Ok so the weather service did predict a flood but the word didn't get out for 1.5 hours and even then no coordination to direct call group leaders of campers on the river?

But yet the Kerr County board took money 10 million dollars from Biden to install upgraded early warning system but then instead spent the money on police toys for the sheriff...

Y'all (comparatively tiny) FEMA was grossly underfunded and understaffed thanks to a GOP-dominated Congress even before DJT was elected and decided to take a saw to it, so even suggesting any of this is on FEMA and always outdated flood mapping – and does OBE/overcome by events ring a bell? – versus state and local govts. as well as property owners amounts to what is at least adjacent to reporting malpractice under the circumstances.

surely there is a way to be honest about risk of natural disaster & keep housing prices “affordable”… might require cutting profit margins but I believe in a world where ppl can afford a house & also don’t die in it due to undisclosed weather risks

They directed the infrastructure funds that President Biden sent them to their Sheriff’s Department. If only they had used the monies as it was intended.

This all come down to money. And there is enough money to go around. There is no reason billionaires can’t help.

U would think that FEMA and the government would want to have this type of research done because it would save them so much money in the long run.
