The number of people missing in the Kerrville area due to the Fourth of July floods has been reduced to 97, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott said during a news conference on Monday.

Kerr County Judge Rob Kelly, the county’s top official, said during a county commissioners court meeting earlier Monday that local officials don’t know the exact number of how many visitors who traveled to the Guadalupe for the holiday weekend had been caught in the flood.

Search and rescue efforts continue Tuesday as crews look for the dozens still missing from the July Fourth floods that devastated the Kerr County area. On Tuesday, Kerr County said that 107 people are confirmed dead in the county.

"There is a plan in place right now to accomplish draining the lake. We can't go any further than that, then to tell you that is being looked at right now," said Commissioner Tom Jones.

Search and rescue efforts resume for an eleventh day as crews continue to look for the 161 missing from the Guadalupe River that surged on the Fourth of July, after a brief pause Sunday due to an emergency weather alert from Kerr County officials.

The death toll from the devastating floods that swept through Kerr County early Friday stands at 107 , officials said Tuesday.

Crews are using construction equipment to clear vehicles, trees and homes in a race to locate more than 170 people still missing since Friday’s devastating flood.

Emergency crews were able to resume some recovery efforts after being forced to suspend search operations in Kerr County, Texas, on Sunday, as the area hit hardest by catastrophic flash flooding earlier this month faced a renewed flood threat out of nearby Lampasas County.
