SUMMARY: AC units work efficiently if they maintain a 20° difference between indoor and outdoor temperatures. KPRC 2’s Gage Golding debunks myths about improper AC maintenance methods, like using umbrellas, canopies, or spraying water on the condenser, which can harm the unit. He emphasizes avoiding these practices and keeping the AC unit clean for optimal performance. Bigger AC units are not better as they may fail to dehumidify properly. The key to maintaining your AC unit during extreme heat is regular maintenance, ensuring it operates as designed. Golding advises against unconventional methods, focusing instead on proper care.

It’s hot in Houston.
There’s no other way to say it.
Summer is here and with it are “feels like” temperatures climbing well above 100° F.

SUMMARY: This report highlights two significant issues discovered along the Trinity River, affecting the dam and surrounding infrastructure. The first issue, found in May, involves erosion around a westward training wall, leading to partial failure. The second, discovered last week, involves severe erosion at the base of a support structure near the dam’s apron, prompting federal emergency alerts. In response, the Trinity River Authority is taking three major actions: lowering Lake Livingston’s water level, moving 100 truckloads of rock daily, and pumping concrete for essential repairs. These measures aim to ensure the dam’s safety before any tropical storms hit, with final repairs expected by month’s end.

Nearly a week after the Trinity River Authority declared a “potential failure watch” for the Lake Livingston Dam, we’re learning about the damage done during flooding earlier this year.
