Barton Creek flooded in 1981, 2015, and 2018, killing 12 people during 2015 Memorial Day weekend when 10+ inches fell overnight. Onion Creek is a 'flash flood alley' that inundates homes in Sendera, Bluff Springs, and Onion Creek neighborhoods within 30 minutes. Shoal Creek runs through downtown UT Campus and floods Lamar Boulevard during storms. Position as 'Flash Flood Response Expert' with 15-minute response teams, limestone terrain knowledge, and pre-flood barrier systems for recurring danger zones.
