President Donald Trump met with victims' families and surveyed the damage of catastrophic floods that struck the state one week ago.

Over 100 people have died after heavy rain pounded Kerr County, Texas, early Friday, leading to "catastrophic" flooding, the sheriff said.

The reporter said that several families were angry because they felt that alerts for the flood did not go out in time.

President Donald Trump is visiting Texas on Friday to assess catastrophic flooding that has killed at least 120 people.

"The first lady and I are here in Texas to express the love and support and the anguish of our entire nation in the aftermath of this really horrific and deadly flood," Trump said as he spoke at a roundtable event with first responders and local officials.

Joined by First Lady Melania Trump and officials, Trump surveyed devastation and met with victims' families and emergency responders.
