Waking Up to Water

Dove Springs residents who live along Onion Creek went to bed the night of October 30, 2013, unaware most of them would wake up to inches of water in their homes. That morning, more than 600 homes in Onion Creek were underwater. Many people, including the Huerta family, sought shelter on their roofs, waiting hours until emergency responders could rescue them by boat. Five people died in the floods.
