DeWitt County Monitors Creeks and Waterways Following Recent Rainfall

By Pat Trevino | Cuero Online News

CUERO, TX — April 22, 2026

The DeWitt County Office of Emergency Management and Floodplain Administration announced Tuesday that it is closely monitoring creeks, rivers, and tributaries throughout the area in the wake of recent rainfall that brought welcome moisture to the region. Officials said the stretch of precipitation, while much needed after dry conditions, has prompted the office to keep a careful eye on water levels across the county.

At this time, emergency management officials said they do not anticipate any immediate flooding concerns. Still, the office noted that it will continue to track rainfall activity occurring to the north and within surrounding watersheds that ultimately feed into local waterways. As conditions develop over the coming days, officials said they intend to remain vigilant and provide updates as warranted.

The office also reached out to community members for assistance, encouraging residents to stay weather aware and to share photographs of rainfall or rising creek levels in their neighborhoods. Those wishing to contribute can post photos and updates directly to the office’s social media pages, helping officials maintain real-time situational awareness of conditions on the ground throughout DeWitt County.

As always, residents are urged to exercise caution and avoid crossing low-water crossings during heavy rain events. Anyone who observes flooding or has concerns about rising water levels is encouraged to contact the DeWitt County Office of Emergency Management promptly.

San Jacinto Day: The Battle That Changed the Course of Texas History

San Jacinto Day marks the anniversary of the Battle of San Jacinto, fought on April 21, 1836, near present‑day La Porte in Harris County. This battle was the final and decisive clash of the Texas Revolution, where General Sam Houston’s Texian army defeated General Antonio López de Santa Anna’s Mexican forces.

The battle was astonishingly brief — about 18 minutes — yet its impact was enormous. The Texian army killed 630 Mexican soldiers, captured 730, and suffered minimal losses themselves. Santa Anna was captured the following day, effectively ending the conflict.

This victory led directly to the creation of the Republic of Texas, which remained independent for nearly a decade before joining the United States in 1846.
