Fresh rainfall soaking Texas this week is bringing back heartbreaking memories for those who survived the catastrophic Hill Country floods that struck one year ago.
Lorena Guillen finds herself reflecting on that harrowing experience as the rain returns. She and her husband risked their lives attempting to rescue a family who had been caught in the floodwaters near their RV park during last year’s massive flooding event in the Hill Country region.
For survivors like Guillen, the sound and sight of heavy rain is a painful reminder of the destruction and loss that unfolded during the deadly 2025 floods — a disaster that left deep emotional scars that have yet to fully heal.
