Search-and-rescue operations along the Guadalupe River were halted Sunday after a new round of heavy rain led to more high-water rescues and prompted fears that waterways could surge again above their banks.

More than 2,000 people from multiple agencies were assisting the effort in Kerr County, Sheriff Larry Leitha said.

Around 6-10 inches of rain fell across the region over the weekend causing floods that prompted rescues and evacuations.
