Over 130 people have died after heavy rain pounded Kerr County, Texas, early Friday, leading to "catastrophic" flooding, the sheriff said.

"The heavy rain has ended. Flooding is no longer expected to pose a threat. Please continue to heed remaining road closures. A Flood Watch remains in effect until midnight for a portion of central Pennsylvania," says the National Weather Service.

A flood watch was in effect for more than a dozen counties as authorities resumed the search for victims of the July 4 tragedy.
