It's San Angelo that is missing the MIC and hydrologist I believe.

Idk. Maybe it hasn't been updated? I'm just directly quoting the "legislative director of NWS Employees organization". Seems like he'd know which positions are filled and which are vacant.

So who was the clown that did this?

That’s not good… 109 people are already dead.
There's still 10 kids missing and a 19 year old counselor from camp mystic from what I read.

Hopefully a lot of those are just miscommunications and not actually deceased. It sounds like a big challenge has been figuring out who all might have been camped or staying in the RV parks, and I'm not sure what records were kept if any or what records may have survived the flooding in those areas, so they're going to have to rely a lot on some second hand info to ascertain who all was there. Total nightmare.

I hope this isn't ignorant or giving false hope, but I don't think it's possible for a sizeable amount of that 161 to be dead. They've been combing the area relentlessly for 4 days now. It doesn't seem like there's any way that many bodies could still be hidden. It's gotta just be talking about people unaccounted for at the moment right? Right?! 
Because if I'm wrong, this flood could be equal to Helene... and in a much smaller area. A messed up fact about Helene is that the storm killed 250 people, but 74 of those were from post-storm events like accidents during cleanup or medical emergencies. Just goes to show the challenges and dangers search and rescue crews face with a disaster like this.

The 1976 Big Thompson River flood here in Colorado killed 144 people in a short time span.

Convective chronicles uploaded a video earlier today discussing the catastrophic flooding that went on with unfortunately devastating impacts
111 dead and more than 170 missing. A news conference is supposed to be in about a hour.
119 now dead

A SAR operator said that there could be up to 500 missing, although for some reason media hasn’t picked up on it yet.

Where are you seeing this number? Source please.
