What the National Weather Service wrote

Rainfall through the late afternoon brought totals across the county to 2 to 3 inches, with isolated amounts in the Seguin area to near 6 inches. Widespread flash flooding swept cars into low water crossings across the county. The occupants of a mobile-home park were forced to evacuate when flood waters threatened their area. Some buildings of the Schertz-Cibolo-Universal City school district were flooded. A 19-year old woman was drowned after the car she was riding in became stranded at a low water crossing across Geronimo Creek. The driver was rescued. Another vehicle was stalled in the deep water at the same time, but all occupants of that vehicle were able to be rescued.
