Train derailment in Livingston, Kentucky, causes chemical spill, evacuations – NBC 5 Dallas-Fort Worth
SUMMARY: A train derailment in eastern Kentucky led to a chemical spill, prompting officials to advise residents to evacuate Livingston, a small town of about 200 people. The derailment, which involved at least 16 cars, occurred at 2:30 p.m. and two cars carrying molten sulfur caught fire. Sulfur dioxide, a toxic gas, may be releasing, though the amount is uncertain until monitoring is done. The EPA says sulfur dioxide can cause respiratory issues. The quantity of chemicals released is unknown. A state of emergency has been declared in the county. One crew member was treated for minor injuries. Residents are urged to avoid the area.

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.

SUMMARY: Hurricane Beryl is expected to bring heavy rain and strong winds to South Texas and possibly Austin by late Sunday night or early Monday morning, according to Lt. Governor Dan Patrick and state emergency officials. Residents along the coast from Brownsville to the Louisiana border are advised to prepare over the weekend and avoid travel on Monday.
