Young campers and a dad saving his family were among the dozens killed in the historic flash floods that tore through central Texas over the holiday weekend.

In the wake of the deadly flash floods in Texas, state leaders are exploring whether to install more flood warning sirens. Such sirens can save lives if they're part of a larger warning system.

Almost 120 people are dead across Central Texas after flooding over the July 4th weekend. More than 170 people are considered missing, according to officials.
