Over 100 people have died after heavy rain pounded Kerr County, Texas, early Friday, leading to "catastrophic" flooding, the sheriff said.

Search crews continued the grueling task of recovering the missing as more potential flash flooding threatened Texas Hill Country.

Officials have confirmed nearly 130 people dead in the wake of the catastrophic Fourth of July storms on Friday, July 11, one full week after the floods began devastating the Texas Hill Country. The updates come after President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump visited the region with other Texas officials on Friday.

In the last nine years, federal funding for a system has been denied to the county as it contends with a tax base hostile to government overspending.

"The first lady and I are here in Texas to express the love and support and the anguish of our entire nation in the aftermath of this really horrific and deadly flood," Trump said as he spoke at a roundtable event with first responders and local officials.

Crews are using construction equipment to clear vehicles, trees and homes in a race to locate the 161 people still missing since Friday’s devastating flood.

The Community Foundation of the Texas Hill Country has established the Kerr County Flood Relief Fund to support local response, relief, and recovery efforts following the devastating July 4th flood. You can access the Fund here: https://t.co/fSsOpJj2hq pic.twitter.com/uyYMBazwaX

President Donald Trump travels to Texas on Friday amid growing questions about how local officials responded to the devastating floods, as well as questions about the federal response -- including FEMA's fate -- that he has so far avoided.
