Lake Travis reaches capacity as floods threaten homes

Flooding in Texas's Hill Country has caused two fatalities and prompted extensive rescue efforts after heavy rains overflowed Lake Travis, reaching 105% of capacity. The surge led to the release of floodgates at Mansfield Dam for the first time since 2019 and worsened conditions in low-lying communities, while roads remain submerged and a bridge has collapsed. Tropical Storm Bertha is expected to bring gusty winds and scattered rain to the region later this week, but is not anticipated to cause additional flooding.
