HAMPTON ROADS — On July 4, a flash flood along the Guadalupe River overwhelmed the Texas hill country region of Kerr County. The river surged to almost 30 feet in under an hour, leading to a major rush of water. At the heart of the storm was Camp Mystic, a summer camp for girls.

Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin's family was in Texas during the catastrophic flooding over the holiday weekend, with the lawmaker saying his personal rescue story is among the hundreds from the harrowing weather event.

Our hearts go out to the families and communities in Texas who have been devastated by these historic floods' — Governor Glenn Youngkin
