Experts said the NWS did a good job warning about the flooding, but questions remain about whether the cuts played a role.

Chuck Schumer asked acting Inspector General Roderick Anderson to investigate if recent NWS staff cuts had an impact on the death toll from the Texas floods.

"A lot of the weather forecast offices now are not operating at full complement of staff," said the former lead of NOAA.

Emergency responders continue to search for missing people, including at least 10 girls who were attending a summer camp on the banks of the Guadalupe River.

Bucks County is under a flood watch for Monday and a heat advisory for Tuesday amid the remnants of Tropical Storm Chantal.

Tropical Storm Chantal weakened into a depression after sweeping inland across South Carolina into eastern North Carolina on Sunday, July 6, though the system still brought a threat of flash flooding and dangerous rip currents.

After Tropical Storm Chantal made landfall, the deepest moisture and heaviest rain is forecast to track across eastern Virginia, southern Maryland and Delaware. This is a zone to watch for potential flooding on Monday.
