Event narrative (NOAA)

Flood waters swept a truck off FM 1340 resulting in a fatality. A local resident of Hunt was headed home from a local school board meeting when he tried to cross a low water crossing. By the time rescuers responded he was apparently swept downstream and drowned. His body was discovered several days later about a mile downstream at another low water crossing.
