Warnings occurred around 1 o clock in the morning the night before

After media reports & experts warned for months that drastic & sudden cuts at the Nat Weather Service by Trump could impair their forecasting ability & endanger lives during the storm season, TX officials blame an inaccurate forecast by NWS for the deadly results of the flood.

Flood Watch issued yesterday at 1:18 pm. WPC had mesoscale discussions throughout the event. NWS issues Flash Flood Warning at 1:14 am. NWS issues Flash Flood Emergency at 4:03 am. NWS was on the ball. The challenge is always getting the warning the last mile and getting people to respond.

My heart is with everyone impacted by the devastating floods across Texas—those who have lost loved ones & those still searching. Many of the impacted families are from right here in Dallas. We’re mourning with you and praying for comfort, healing, & peace in the days ahead. TX-30 stands with you.

According to research, this was far from a “100 year event.”
