When storms roll in, water rushes downhill fast, gaining speed and force as it moves — often with deadly results.

In the wake of last week’s Texas floods that killed more than 100 people, a Post analysis found the number of U.S. freshwater flood fatalities has ticked up in recent years.

Catastrophic flooding in central Texas has claimed at least 108 lives, including 30 children at Camp Mystic in Kerr County. Governor Abbott has mobilized state agencies for search and rescue.

Search-and-rescue teams from Texas and outside the state are working around the clock as at least 23 people are still missing.
