Officials in Texas are facing mounting questions about whether they did enough to get people out of harm’s way before a flash flood swept down the Guadalupe River and killed more than 100 people, including at least 27 children and counselors at an all-girls Christian camp.

The downpours that swept away a children's summer camp and wreaked deadly havoc on huge areas of Texas caught holidaymakers by surprise. As the death toll passes 90 people, questions are being raised about whether adequate flood warnings were provided and why people weren't evacuated ahead of the deluge.
