July 5Jul 5 Popular Post jesus christ.... immmac its gonna be fucking impossible to keep this CR free when this presser is just about a certain group of assholes telling us what we already know and trying to pat each other on the back saying they did everything they could

Yeah, the problem is that the old, original Camp Mystic is the one we're talking about, not the newer, added on CM-Cypress Lake. The original camp is to the west on the bank of the Guadalupe. For whatever reason, only Cypress Lake is indicated on Google Maps/Earth.

July 5Jul 5 I really don’t want to be judgmental but these people are really acting like they don’t want to talk about anything of substance.
July 5Jul 5 I don’t know how you guys can watch this without breaking shit, but I appreciate the game thread.

July 5Jul 5 Hopes becoming dashed. theyd lead with good news if they had it they been burying the mystic stuff every presser.
July 5Jul 5 They only have BAD news and they KNOW this and they just want to hide the bad shit in with their mashed potatoes, 🥔
July 5Jul 5 32 deceased - 18 of the deceased are adults and 14 are children. 14 children some of these are unidentified they are still searching and rescuing and they are hoping there are still alive folks but chances diminish with time, Edited July 5Jul 5 by Nicole44
July 5Jul 5 Wow, detailed examples of how prayer works. That's great. Except all the dead people. Just didn't pray early enough, I guess.
July 5Jul 5 Popular Post “God has blessed Texas” has to be the most tone-deaf closing statement I could possibly imagine.

Some one stays up all night monitoring during credible flood warnings and 6" is credible enough to warrant due diligence especially in these types of events that always have excessive rain beyond forecast somewhere, even a single Trib that only floods one camp or area. You camp in a flood zone you have someone with thier head on a swivel. Ignore flood warnings all you want when it's a fast moving frontal event in the fall.

July 5Jul 5 They did say 32 total recovered. of the deceased 18 are adults, 14 are kids. that was pretty clear even tho the person who answered it down at the end of the table.
July 5Jul 5 the 'street' marked 1874S is 100' above the 2 cabins in blue higher ground was easily achieved - this tragedy was avoidable

July 5Jul 5 So 27 missing… er…. Likely dead 32 already dead. And thats just in kerrville?Yes, but it also sounded like they don’t know yet if the recovered bodies are some of the missing. So those missing could be adjusted once ID is made of recovered bodies.

So those missing could be adjusted once ID is made of recovered bodies. Well, they did say they were trying to identify those 5 deceased, so i would think if they were part of the group they were searching for that could have been done pretty quickly. I suspect they're just some of the additional fatalities (tourists, etc.).

I gave you a pass last night because you sounded like Phelgm reincarnated drunk ass. Now go make me a sandwich with the crust cut off.
July 5Jul 5 The question was why did the emergency alerts only start at 7am. We get alerts from other agencies so what happened?Answer: “Well it’s obviously the NWS fault that their budget was cut so that no overnight staff were available to send out the alerts. If they managed themselves better over the years then they would have the resources needed to save more lives.”

Yesterday " they didn't forsee needing to open Starke dam or any flood gate operations with this event." Despite the high CFS on the Llano alone. This is basic math one dude could figure out. Llano at 68k cfs or whatever into a constant level lake like LBJ means you need to release enough water to account for 68k cfs of water coming in plus whatever falls in other tribs, so start filling Travis up ahead of time versus reacting. They should have drawn down LBJ MF And Inks several feet to give room for surge knowing if it stopped raining the continued inflow would fill those lakes right back up over the coming weeks.

Wrong part of Camp Mystic. The one in question is over by Mystic Springs on that view and further to the west. Correction: I was looking at the wrong camp-like cluster of buildings. The original Mystic is north of there, right before 39 crosses the Guad. Edited July 5Jul 5 by TwiceHorn
