| 0:07.0 | President Donald Trump is heading to central Texas today, where he'll see firsthand the devastation caused by last week's floods. |

| 0:22.5 | CNN's Julia Vargas Jones is in Kerr County, one of the worst hit areas. |
| 0:27.6 | Yeah, Joe, on the banks of the Guadalupe River this morning, we are seeing search crews |
