But the stall is unpredictable.

Stalls can be seen in real time. Flash flood warnings can be, and are, issued in real time, in advance of actual rain.

Before Trump butchered NOAA, of course.

Get ready for Americans to die at the hands of Trump.

To be honest, this Kerville floof is reminding me of the whole Uvalde mass shooting event, not so far away.

"Responsible" people sat on their hands while children died and then blamed it all on "crisis actors".

"Initially, was no aggressive or stern warning about what has happened until it was actually happening, because this weather system stalled out"

Stalled weather systems dump rain.

River systems collect rainfall from many thousands of square miles.

I live in Texas and grew up with such things.

Trump's weather service takes it as a surprise so, as you said: "No stern warnings were issued".

The MAGA officials on the ground should have had more common sense.

The Trump weather service was criminally incompetent.

MAGA pols are already explaining the Kerrville flood, and the deaths associated with it, as being "fake".

Or to more precisely quote: "Fake, fake, fake".

Are you in favor of kids not drowning by way of a more useful National Weather Service?

Yes? No? Maybe?

Too much for you?

You in favor of weather satellites?

Simple question.

"Now explain why MAGA hates weather satellites"

Not an idle question. I really want to know, and I'm not the only one. Any insights?

These deaths are simply a part of the cutting edge. MAGA and Trumpism are about death and suffering. What they do is make sure that this happens more frequently and with greater intensity.

I always knew thew Left hated Christains and Jews, the comments on here prove that

Now explain why MAGA hates weather satellites.

it's good when the despicable human trash
self identifies.

Pat yourself on the back.

Every, and I mean EVERY, level of MAGA government, starting with the Feds and going down to city level, will resist spending funds to help Kerrville with this disaster.

"Texas officials are blaming their failure to act on a faulty forecast by Donald Trump's new National Weather Service gutted by cuts to their operating budget and most experienced personnel"

Texas GOP officials?

This is what you said you wanted.

Burn in ----.

Maybe you should worry about being consistent in your own expressions of thought and leave the BS behind.

That would be the same as resigning from MAGA,

That is why Democrat cities and strongholds are literally are what they are, ---- holes and crap.

This is why most inernational tourist destinations in the US are Blue cities, because they are ---- holes and crap.

Ask ROBSON, who would never dream of taking his wife to beautiful San Francisco, or to a play in New York City.

Strictly a Branson man, he is.

More BS that allows ROBSON to play at being a good man.

Let me guess:

Unless the Democratic governor doesn't undo what the MAGA Rep did he's going to be damned as someone who does not care about sick people?

The message, whole and entire, of the BBB is that MAGA wants sick people to get sicker and die.

Which they are going to do.

It's July 5th, and the USA is still in exactly the sorry shape it was on July 4th.

Hmmmmmm.

I was told by MAGA yesterday that rural hospitals need feel no fear.

I guess that this Republican legislator never got the same memo.

Losers. Both of you

People are adopting a fatalism in response to yours.

MAGA: "People Die".

Everyone else: "See, people are dead".

"No one knew this flood was coming," Kelly said. "We have floods all the time."

Looks like this guy is walking both sides of the fence.

These children could have been saved. Everyone saw that weather coming.

But MAGA culture has a strange relationship with weather and predicting it.

The evidence is that they can't be bothered to predict it.

Too much money spent to justify the knowing.

And so everyone decided to forget that heavy rains, even hundreds of miles away, cause flooding downstream.

I pay my taxes

Adhere to the law

Contribute to charity

Take care of my property so my neighbors don't have to look at an eyesore

I help others

I live within my means and pay my bills in a timely manner

I'm polite and nice toward others

It is a known fact that Donald Trump doesn't do at least six of these seven things.

And yet I'm a monster in Zed's eyes.

Are you talented enough to be a monster?

No, of course not.

You live vicariously off the lives of true monsters.

Certainly more so than Ilan Omar.

And of course that's good enough for you. You know that you're avoiding the question, thought. As dishonest as you always are.

Donald Trump is an obvious sociopath by virtue of his documented behavior.

He loves nothing and no one and all he does is prove it.
