Agencies from around the country are descending on the town to offer relief.
Locals are doing their part too - they've set up a center at Wimberley High School where flood victims can come to get supplies.
When they come in, they register and are then paired with a volunteer to get what they need. There are mountains of clothes, baby supplies and pet food, blankets, towels, and cleaning supplies which they say they are in desperate need of.
Small donations can be brought to the school. Large quantities can be brought to the distribution center at 200 Springtown Way in San Marcos
