|More than 80 people die in torrential rains in Texas. Authorities blame each other.
Miracle and catastrophe are particularly close together on the Guadalupe River in Texas these days. A video from Center Point is making the rounds in the American media. A woman clings to a tree, the raging waters of the brown river below her. Residents call for help, and police manage to rescue her. The Guadalupe River swept the camper for more than 20 kilometers, over three dams. For six hours, she drifted past debris: trees, refrigerators, and mobile homes.
