Two major climate disasters of 2025 — the Texas flooding that killed more than 100 people and the L.A. wildfires in January that resulted in 30 deaths and wiped out more than 15,000 homes and businesses — highlight the struggles officials face in fully preparing for extreme weather conditions.

The flash floods in Central Texas that have killed more than 100 people and left dozens missing happened quickly, raising the Guadalupe River 26 feet in just 45 minutes. CBS News environmental correspondent David Schechter joins to explain how climate change impacts severe weather events.

A July Fourth weekend deluge in Texas caused catastrophic flash flooding that has killed at least 89 people. Texans in Center Point have rallied together to clear up the area and search for those missing.
