Texas Flood Disaster Exposes Flaws in Trump's Weather Alert System Amid Modernization Plans
A deadly Texas flood that killed at least 32 people exposed a 'neglected' weather alert system that President Trump aims to modernize as part of his efforts to improve disaster preparedness.
A deadly Texas flood that killed at least 32 people has raised concerns over the effectiveness of the nation's weather alert system, which was criticized by Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem as 'neglected.' The flood occurred just days after President Trump announced plans to modernize the system. Authorities have expressed frustration with previous notifications sent out before the flood, which some say were inadequate and did not reach those in need in time. The incident has sparked calls for improved communication and coordination between emergency responders and weather forecasters.
