We have a crew from Task Force 1 staging in Van Horn! We can’t thank them enough for their support during these rains. If see them around town please be sure the give them a big Van Horn welcome!

🚨 Deployment Update | West Texas Flood Response 🚨

Our TX-TF Water Squads remain in place and ready to respond as they continue monitoring conditions and assisting residents across parts of West Texas. Earlier today, team members were actively assisting residents in Hudspeth County, where flash flooding impacted the area.

While much of Texas is expected to remain dry, portions of the Panhandle, South Plains, and far West Texas may continue to see additional rainfall through this evening. Our personnel remain mission-ready and prepared to respond should conditions worsen.

⚠️ Safety Reminder Never drive, walk, or swim through floodwaters. Just a small amount of moving water can be powerful enough to sweep away people and vehicles. Your safety is the top priority! ; ; ; ;
