SUMMARY: Good morning from North Padre Island in Corpus Christi, Texas, where families are extending their July 4th celebrations on the beach despite Hurricane Barrel churning in the Gulf. Although Corpus Christi remains in the cone of concern as of 10:00 AM, the storm’s track is shifting eastward, closer to Houston, making locals here a bit happier. The sunny weather sees people grilling and enjoying their time. There is still uncertainty regarding Barrel’s intensity and exact path, but updates will continue as the situation develops, potentially moving focus to the Matagorda Bay Area. Stay tuned for live updates.
KPRC 2’s Gage Goulding is live in Corpus Christi, Texas, as the community braces for Tropical Storm Beryl.
SUMMARY: The National Hurricane Center's 7:00 advisory continues tracking Tropical Storm Barrel in the warm Gulf waters with sustained winds of 60 MPH and northwest movement at 12 MPH. The pressure is rising from yesterday. Barrel is expected to strengthen to at least a Category 1 hurricane before making landfall east of Corpus Christi on Monday morning or midday, with potential to reach Category 2. Hurricane watches span from Rio Grande Valley to San Luis Pass, and storm surge watches extend to the Galveston area, predicting surges between 2 to 5 feet. North Texas could see heavy rain, with potential rainfall increasing Monday and Tuesday.
Beryl has been downgraded to a Tropical Storm, but it is expected to re-intensify into a Category 1 or 2 hurricane before it hits Texas. FOX 4's Kylie Capps breaks down the updated path for the storm and the impact seen in North Texas and across the state.
SUMMARY: Avery Anderson, elected at 19, faced numerous issues during his tenure, including failing to send jury summons, subpoenas, and protective orders. Attorneys Khloe Love and Thomas filed a lawsuit to remove him in September 2023, citing widespread concerns about his competence. In February, a judge found Anderson incompetent. A hearing was held last month to consider his temporary removal, but Anderson resigned instead, avoiding a potentially embarrassing trial. He denied incompetence in his resignation letter, attributing his errors to inexperience. District Attorney Kelly Higgins welcomed the resignation, anticipating better collaboration moving forward. Angela Shen reported for Fox 7 Austin News.
