Workers and volunteers will scour riverbanks and dig through debris in Central Texas once again on Monday as their search for missing flood victims resumes after heavy rainfall slowed their efforts.

Additional flooding remains a threat, though warnings in many areas affected by the July 4 floods were downgraded late on Sunday.

Roughly 170 people are unaccounted for from the floods, which killed at least 132 people. The search effort, spanning a stretch of more than 100 miles along the Guadalupe River, continues as residents mourn their neighbors at funerals, return to devastated properties and begin to ponder what comes next.

For families of the missing, the wait for any news becomes more agonizing by the day. But officials said they would continue searching until every victim was found.

Here is what we know about the floods.

As of Monday morning, at least 132 people had been killed in the catastrophic deluge. A majority were in Kerr County, a part of the Texas Hill Country northwest of San Antonio. The death toll in the county rose to 106 — 70 adults and 36 children — on Sunday, and officials reported 161 people still missing.

The dead included several girls as young as 8 who had been at Camp Mystic, a summer camp on the banks of the Guadalupe River with more than 750 attendees; 27 campers and staff members were reported dead there. Dick Eastland, the camp’s longtime director, was among those killed.
