Summary by Terrell Hills News Editorial Desk · Based on reporting by NBC affiliate, WOAI News 4 / News4SA (NBC affiliate) — Local · July 24, 2026 · 1 min read

News 4/FOX San Antonio team will join Gov. Greg Abbott on an exclusive Black Hawk helicopter tour over Cotulla to survey flood damage one week after historic flooding.

Why this matters in Terrell Hills News

The aerial survey of Cotulla's flood damage by Governor Greg Abbott comes at a critical time for Bexar County and surrounding areas, as local residents and officials assess the full extent of the destruction. Terrell Hills, though not directly affected by the Cotulla flooding, is likely to feel the ripple effects of the disaster through regional economic and infrastructure systems. As the state begins to allocate resources for flood relief and recovery, Terrell Hills residents should pay close attention to how these efforts might impact local funding and emergency preparedness initiatives. The governor's firsthand look at the devastation may also inform future policy decisions on flood mitigation and disaster response, which could have significant implications for communities throughout the San Antonio area, including Terrell Hills.
