At least 17 people from the Austin-area died in the Central Texas floods. Here is a timeline of what happened in Travis, Williamson and Burnet counties.

Eight-year-old girls at sleep-away camp, families crammed into recreational vehicles, local residents traveling to or from work. These are some of the victims.

Meteorologists say the Texas Hill Country is frequently hit with floods, although some officials and residents were caught off guard by the catastrophic storms, which killed more than 100 people over the holiday weekend.
