SUMMARY: Former Humble ISD special education teacher Amber Reynolds appeared in court on Thursday for allegedly harming a nonverbal student. Court documents state that Reynolds was witnessed by school employees yanking and dragging the student for misbehaving. The school’s principal witnessed Reynolds getting rough with a 5-year-old student, and an investigation revealed bruises on the child. Reynolds allegedly gave melatonin gummies to students. In 2016, Reynolds, Humble ISD, and others were defendants in a federal lawsuit filed by a special education student claiming verbal and physical harassment. Reynolds resigned in 2015 but was re-hired. The judge ultimately dismissed the suit in 2017.

SUMMARY: In Texas, residents have observed an unusual rise in fly populations, particularly exacerbated in recent years. The phenomenon, discussed by Central Texans on Reddit, aligns with insights from Texas AgriLife Entomologist Wizzie Brown. She explains that the state's warm climate supports year-round fly activity, with heat accelerating their life cycle, leading to rapid population growth. Climate change is likely worsening the issue, as higher temperatures benefit flies and expand their habitable areas. To manage the infestation, Brown suggests regular trash removal, using outdoor garbage bins, and cleaning these bins with dish soap to eliminate fly-attracting odors.

SUMMARY: Hurricane Beryl, which began as a Category 2 hurricane, weakened to a tropical storm but is forecasted to regain hurricane status and hit southern Texas by Sunday night or Monday. The National Hurricane Center predicts landfall between Brownsville and north of Corpus Christi, with potential rapid intensification due to warm Gulf waters. Experts warn it could become a Category 2 or 3 storm. Beryl has already shown unprecedented rapid intensification, with significant increases in wind speed. This early-season storm reflects unusually warm Atlantic waters, potentially influenced by climate change and a developing La Nina, suggesting a more intense hurricane season ahead.
