During storms, warning systems alert people of danger. Sirens can warn people of a coming storm. People also receive alerts on their phones. Warning systems save lives during emergencies. The National Weather Service sent warnings before and during the floods. But many people did not receive the alerts. There were also no sirens in some areas most affected by the floods. Leaders in Texas are working to improve warning systems.
