“This is the live updates that we’re getting right now from the field is there are unconfirmed at this point reports of additional water coming in. And as the governor mentioned, there’s rain still falling on the area,” Kidd said.

“We’ve got DPS aircraft that are flying up to try to find this wall of water right now, and the people in the reported areas, again, unconfirmed, that are on our communication systems. We’re asking them to get out of the water and out of the way so that we don’t wind up having to do additional rescues.”

On Sunday, Kerr County Sheriff Larry Leitha also warned that the Guadalupe River and Johnson Creek could rise another one to two feet as rainfall continues in the area.

“There was additional rain in the upper Guadalupe basin this afternoon, leading to a rise in Johnson Creek,” the sheriff’s office shared in a Facebook update. “This water may lead to a rise of 1-2ft downstream when it enters the Guadalupe river in Ingram. Please be aware if you are near the Guadalupe River or Johnson Creek.”

During a Sunday news conference, Leitha said they have recorded 68 deaths in Kerr County.

“Among those who are deceased, we have 40 adults and 28 children,” Leitha said. “18 adults are pending identification and ten children are also pending identification.”

“At present there are ten Camp Mystic campers unaccounted for, and one counselor. We continue to offer our condolences to those affected, and we will work tirelessly till we reunite them with their families,” he continued.

President Donald Trump said he was planning on visiting Texas, “probably on Friday.”

“We want to leave a little time. I would have done it today, but we’d just be in their way. Probably Friday,” Trump said.
