Search teams are working tirelessly to recover the deceased from this catastrophic flood. While some are grateful for the beautiful lake it created, others upstream are still searching for answers — answers that, sadly, are beginning to surface in our lake, according to Mike Jimenez with KENS5 News.

If you see any of the boats shown in the video below, please stay clear & take a moment to watch- therefore you can identify these watercraft’s.

As we head into the weekend, the water’s looking great for boating and fun. Just keep in mind, there’s still some hidden debris out there.

Stay safe and enjoy the lake!

Put green ribbons out remembering all flood victims.

For everyone going to the Rivers this weekend please note the weather. The ground is saturated, with no where to go than flood. Watch the sky and watch the animals/insects too. They can tell you when the weather is changing. Many years ago when my family was camping along the Nueces River off HWY 55 below the 19 mile crossing, every time the flys started swarming we knew something was coming. A old rancher, who lived on a ranch high on a cliff above the river told my dad “If you ever see the skies turn mean at the headwaters of this river, get your family to higher ground immediately! The sky may be blue and the sun maybe shining, but there could be a wall of water coming without any notice!” We never forgot that and that warning saved our lives more than a few times.
There is flood watch for our area until Sunday.
Be aware and watch out…Stay safe everyone.

It’s important that people stay out of the Lake for the time being. The flow of debris coming into the lake is still contaminated.
