New questions raised about whether Camp Mystic director saw flood warning alert

As investigators work to reconstruct the events leading up to the fatal flooding at Camp Mystic in Hunt, Texas, questions arise concerning the camp owner’s methods of tracking the storm and his awareness of the emergency alert.

Richard “Dick” Eastland reportedly took action following more than two inches of precipitation along the Guadalupe River, according to the Associated Press. This info came via Jeff Carr, who acts as a representative for both the family and the camp. Carr noted Eastland had a “home weather station” and was keeping an eye on the rainfall on July 4, as reported by the Associated Press.

Although it was suggested to news outlets that Eastland received the flash flood warnings, Carr informed the Associated Press that neither the family nor any camp staff could confirm whether the camp owner received the alert at 1:14 a.m., leaving the timeline of the incident unclear.

Carr told the Associated Press that Eastland and others began evacuating girls from the cabins closest to the overflowing river and moved them to the camp’s recreation hall. 

The flooding at Camp Mystic killed 27 campers and counselors. At least 132 people died in the central Texas flooding and dozens remain missing in the Kerrville area.
