Man Commits to Keeping Texas Business Afloat Amid ‘Worst Flood’ in Two Decades

In Jonestown, Texas, residents are grappling with the aftermath of unprecedented flooding, described by local business owner David Abboud as the worst he’s witnessed in the two decades he has lived there. Abboud, who runs a paintball facility, recounted the swift destruction caused by the storm, which brought water levels to approximately 25 feet high, catastrophic enough to wash away parts of his property. The flooding crested at an alarming 50,000 cubic feet per second, evidence of the storm’s ferocity. Though some fields and trees were lost, Abboud remains determined to restore his business and community.

The flooding has deeply impacted local infrastructure, as Abboud noted a creek has expanded dramatically, covering roads that were previously accessible. He highlighted the ongoing challenges posed by flooding in the area, referencing ongoing issues with low water crossings that have historically flooded during heavy rains. The situation has accelerated concerns about the structural integrity of retaining walls meant to mitigate water flow, and Abboud expressed surprise that such barriers remained standing amidst the chaos.

Emergency management officials have issued warnings regarding potential further flooding, including reports of another “wall of water” forming in the area. Texas Division of Emergency Management Chief W. Nim Kidd confirmed during a press conference that evacuations were underway in anticipation of rising water levels that could exacerbate the situation. With rain continuing to fall, the threat remains significant, prompting urgent calls for those in flood-affected areas to seek higher ground for safety.

The community’s plight is compounded by tragic loss, as Kerr County Sheriff Larry Leitha announced a grim tally, reporting 68 fatalities, including both adults and children. Identifications of many victims are still pending, including ten campers from Camp Mystic and one counselor, whose families are anxiously awaiting news. The sheriff pledged that every effort would be made to reunite the missing individuals with their loved ones, underscoring the emotional urgency of the situation.

In a show of solidarity, Texas officials, including Governor Greg Abbott, are coordinating resources and support for the affected communities. Donations have poured in, with pledges of financial assistance to help those in need. The community’s resilience is on full display, as locals come together to assist in rescue efforts and cleanup operations, demonstrating the strength and solidarity that can emerge in times of crisis.

As the area braces for any further developments, high-profile figures, including former President Donald Trump, have expressed their intentions to visit Texas to provide support and solidarity. With various agencies responding to the crisis, the situation remains fluid, and the people of Jonestown are united in their determination to recover and rebuild from this devastating event.
