Up Against Time, a Desperate Search Presses Ahead
Workers for Mastermind Facility Services typically trim hedges and do outdoor maintenance at offices and apartment complexes around San Antonio. But on Sunday, a group of them were an hour away, near Kerrville, Texas, helping police officers cut and claw through fallen trees and debris at a riverside wedding venue ravaged by the recent flash flooding. Search-and-rescue teams have been hoping against hope to find signs of life. But what they have encountered instead is painful silence and, in some instances, a trail of death. At one point, the workers, who came as volunteers, were worried that trapped inside the tangle of vegetation were the remains of someone who had been carried away by the surge of water that arrived on Friday. It turned out to be a false alarm. The workers recognized that this was a physically and mentally arduous mission but, ultimately, not about them. Maybe they could help reunite a family, or at least provide a measure of certainty after days of dread. That is what mattered. 'You got to put your emotions aside,' said Christopher Rey, 35, one of the workers. A sprawling and desperate search for missing people along the swollen Guadalupe River in Central Texas pushed forward on Sunday. Officials and search crews were acutely aware that the window for finding them alive was rapidly closing. There have been astonishing stories of survival, feeding a sliver of hope that there was still a chance for rescues, even three days after the flooding began. Still, search crews were not only up against not only time, but also the unrelenting force of nature. The strength and fury of the floodwaters were evident in uprooted trees and razed homes and buildings. The efforts were further hampered by more uncooperative weather. In Kerr County, which experienced the worst of the flooding and the highest death toll, phones blared on Sunday afternoon with fresh warnings as more rain fell. There was a 'high confidence' of additional flooding, the alert said. 'Move to higher ground.' Want all of The Times? Subscribe.

CWG Live updates: Thunderstorms are possible every day this week
Welcome to updated around-the-clock by Capital Weather Gang meteorologists. Happening now: Spotty showers possible this morning, especially south of the Beltway. It's very warm and humid this afternoon, with highs 85 to 90, and more numerous showers and storms are possible. What's next? Every day this week is very warm and muggy with possible showers and storms, especially during the afternoon and evening. Storms may be most numerous and intense between Tuesday and Thursday. Today's daily digit — 4/10: The humidity is pretty outrageous today and there may be some showers and storms to dodge. | 🤚 Your call? The digit is a somewhat subjective rating of the day's weather, on a 0-to-10 scale. Forecast in detail Today (Monday): A few showers are possible this morning from the remnants of Tropical Storm Chantal, mainly south of the Beltway. During the afternoon, it's partly sunny and very humid (dew points in the mid-70s) with highs from 85 to 90. A few pop-up showers or thundershowers are possible, but may not be all that widespread. Winds are light from the southeast at around 5 mph. Confidence: Medium-High Tonight: A few evening showers and storms are possible, followed by partly cloudy and muggy conditions. Lows range from 70 to 75. Confidence: Medium-High Tomorrow (Tuesday): This could be the week's worst weather day. The combination of sweltering temperatures (highs from 90 to 95) and high humidity (dew points in the low to mid-70s) produce heat indexes from 100 to 105. During the afternoon and evening, showers and storms are likely, and they'll be capable of producing damaging winds and flooding rains. Winds are from the west at 5 to 10 mph but potentially much stronger in storms. Confidence: Medium-High Tomorrow night: Some showers and storms could linger into the evening. Overnight, it's mostly cloudy with a slight chance of showers and storms and lows from 70 to 75. Confidence: Medium-High A look ahead The forecast for Wednesday and Thursday is the same: Partly sunny and humid, with scattered afternoon and evening showers and storms. It's possible that storms on Thursday concentrate more in the southern half of the D.C. area — but confidence in their placement is low. The storms on either day could be heavy and capable of producing flooding. Highs both days range from the mid-80s to near 90, but it feels more like the 90s with the humidity. Lows at night are mostly in the 70s. Confidence: Medium The stalled front serving as the focus for storms on Wednesday and Thursday will gradually fade between Friday and Sunday, but there will be enough residual moisture for continued afternoon and evening storm chances. They'll be somewhat less probable than previous days but still carry about a 40 percent chance. Outside of storms, partly sunny skies are generally the rule with highs 85 to 90 and lows 70 to 75.
