Did Texas Learn From Its Deadly Flood
One year after flash flooding killed more than 130 people in the Texas Hill Country, a high risk flood day put San Antonio underwater, and then a tornado nobody saw coming dropped into the middle of the flash flood emergency. I flew in from covering a typhoon in Japan to answer one question: did Texas learn? What happened on July 14–16, 2026: a rare WPC HIGH risk for excessive rainfall which is issued on fewer than 4% of days, and ir verified over South Central Texas. Boerne saw more than 3.5 inches of rain in one hour, creeks hit record levels, and 36 people were rescued from the water. That same morning, a likely EF1 tornado struck northwest San Antonio near UTSA and I-10 with no warning of what was coming. This is the full story from the ground , the forecast, the flight in, the tornado damage, the flash flood emergency, and the people who got out because they remembered last July. 00:00 - Intro 1:00 - Traveling to Texas 2:55 - Tornado intercept from an A320 Jet 4:19 - Deciding how to chase the flash flood risk 5:41 - Tornado hits during flash flooding 7:30 - Boerne Flash Flood Emergency 🇯🇵 Watch what 50 years of learning looks like — my typhoon coverage from Ishigaki, Japan: [ • A 100 MPH Typhoon Hit Japan and Nothing Ha... ] Please support @BrianEmfingerWx and subscribe to his channel!
