More than 100 people have been confirmed dead in the Texas flooding.

It's like people are missing and we don't even know and they're all of a sudden they're found and families and kids and it's just, it's like never ending.

That's where we're starting the seven from The Washington Post.

I'm Reni Svronovsky in for Hannah Jewell.

It's Tuesday, July 8th.

Let's get you caught up with today's seven stories.

Emergency workers and volunteers are continuing to search for dozens of people who remain

missing after devastating floods

hit Central Texas on Friday. At the top of the show, you heard from Kerr County employee

Edomendoza. Reporters also spoke with Julia Hatfield. She and her husband narrowly escaped

flash flooding at an RV park in Kerr County.

The hardest part was there was a little boy who started floating downstream.

And he was screaming, asking for help.

But there just wasn't anything anybody could do at that point.

I was about to jump in and my husband had to hold me back. He said,

you're going to go to and there's nothing you can do if you jump in. I didn't know how I was going to

live with that. And thankfully, by the end of the day yesterday, I saw his face online and he had been

rescued. Also in Kerr County, Camp Mystic said it was grieving

the loss of 27 campers and counselors. Ten girls and one counselor were still unaccounted for

yesterday, which was the fourth day of the search. Children make up about a third of the total casualties.

Experts warned that children around the globe are increasingly at risk from extreme weather events.
