The president, describing the rapid water-level rise in the area west of San Antonio and Austin, then likened the torrent to an unsurfable wave — claiming at least 120 lives and leaving 160 others missing.

“The best surfers in the world would be afraid to surf” the floodwaters,” he said, comparing them to “a giant, giant wave in the Pacific Ocean.”

“We prayed with them, we hugged, we held hands. They shared the stories. And I met beautiful young ladies. They gave me this special bracelet from the camp in honor of all of the little girls that lost their lives.”

Dr. Phil McGraw, the television personality, was also called upon by the president to offer words of consolation.

“If you see someone in the store, everybody wonders, ‘Do I say something to them? I know they lost a child or a grandchild. Do I bring it up?’” McGraw said. “The answer to that question is an unambiguous yes. You don’t ever let them think you’ve moved on from it.”
