Flies in Texas: Are there more right now and why?
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.

Storm preparation: Beryl expected to strengthen to hurricane as Texas braces for impact
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.
