In the early hours of July 4, 2025, a devastating flash flood occurred in the Texas Hill Country. Flash floods develop over a short period of time, making them life-threatening. NESDIS's STAR provides data and information to @NOAA’s @NWS, allowing them to detect potential flooding and issue timely and accurate warnings.
