Hundreds of volunteers are working together with rescue personnel in boats, helicopters and on horseback.
We will not stop until all missing persons have been found, said Texas Governor Greg Abbott during a press conference on Tuesday.
So far, over 100 people have been confirmed dead and the number of missing rose on Tuesday evening to at least 160. The most deaths after the flood have been reported from Kerr County where 87 people have been confirmed dead, of which 30 are children.
Many of them participated in the severely affected Christian summer camp for girls, Camp Mystic, which was held right next to the Guadalupe River which rose eight meters in just 45 minutes early on Friday. Ten children from the camp are still missing.
A woman who previously was both a participant and a leader at Camp Mystic tells the magazine People that her three daughters miraculously survived the disaster after being evacuated with a military helicopter.
I am still in shock, she says to the magazine.
US President Donald Trump plans to visit Texas on Friday.
