Texas Governor Abbott Mobilizes Emergency Resources Ahead of Severe Weather, Flooding
Governor Greg Abbott has mobilized extensive state emergency response resources as severe weather threatens Texas, including the Panhandle, North, East, and Central regions, with forecasts predicting excessive rainfall and flash flooding. The Texas Division of Emergency Management (TDEM) has been directed to remain on alert, coordinating efforts with multiple agencies such as the Texas A&M Engineering Extension Service's Swiftwater Rescue Boat Squads, Texas A&M Forest Service Strike Teams, and the Texas Department of State Health Services, which is deploying medics, ambulances, and all-terrain vehicles. Additional support comes from the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, Texas Department of Public Safety, Texas National Guard, Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service, and others, all prepared to assist with flood rescues and emergency operations. Governor Abbott urged Texans to take necessary precautions, monitor local weather updates through resources like TexasFlood.org, and adhere to safety campaigns such as "Turn Around, Don't Drown" to avoid driving into floodwaters. State agencies are also actively monitoring road conditions and preparing for potential disruptions, emphasizing the importance of personal emergency plans and supply kits. This coordinated response aims to mitigate the impact of the impending storms and ensure public safety across the affected regions.
