“Current live updates from the field indicate unconfirmed reports of more water coming in,” said Kidd. “As the governor mentioned, the region is still experiencing rain.”

“Our DPS aircraft are currently flying to locate this wall of water. We’re advising residents in the reported areas, although these reports remain unconfirmed and are on our communication systems, to evacuate the water and clear the area to prevent further rescue operations,” he added.

Additionally, on Sunday, Kerr County Sheriff Larry Leitha cautioned that the Guadalupe River and Johnson Creek could potentially rise by another one to two feet as the rain persists.

“There was additional rain in the upper Guadalupe basin this afternoon, leading to a rise in Johnson Creek,” the sheriff’s office shared in a Facebook update. “This water may lead to a rise of 1-2ft downstream when it enters the Guadalupe river in Ingram. Please be aware if you are near the Guadalupe River or Johnson Creek.”

During a Sunday news conference, Leitha said they have recorded 68 deaths in Kerr County.

“Among those who are deceased, we have 40 adults and 28 children,” Leitha said. “18 adults are pending identification and ten children are also pending identification.”

“At present there are ten Camp Mystic campers unaccounted for, and one counselor. We continue to offer our condolences to those affected, and we will work tirelessly till we reunite them with their families,” he continued.

President Donald Trump said he was planning on visiting Texas, “probably on Friday.”

“We want to leave a little time. I would have done it today, but we’d just be in their way. Probably Friday,” Trump said.
