WATCH — Texas hit by deadly flash floods. Here’s why and how they happen

On July 4, flash flooding in central Texas, caused by a massive rainstorm, caught many off guard.

Since then, officials say, that number has grown to at least 120 and the search for missing people is ongoing. To learn more about how and why flash floods happen, watch our video about the science behind them.
