McLendon-Chisholm dam deemed safe: ‘Citizens should not be concerned’
SUMMARY: A Rockwall County neighborhood is on alert due to erosion risks from heavy rain, threatening 25 to 30 homes if a nearby dam fails at a reservoir in McLendon-Chisholm. State inspectors stated that the erosion is not an immediate threat, but local authorities remain cautious. Recent rains have worsened erosion around the natural, non-cement dam. Residents, including some who have packed valuables, remain on standby for possible evacuations. Mayor Brian McNeil voiced concerns about clogged culverts and future rain while advocating for continued water pumping as a precaution. Rapid county growth raises questions about necessary infrastructure investments. The fire department monitors the situation hourly.

Hurricane Beryl Update: Latest on storm’s path
SUMMARY: Barrel's eyewall is closely brushing the south coast of Jamaica but is not expected to make landfall as it parallels the coastline. Winds are at 140 mph, cementing its status as a Category 4 hurricane. Moving West-Northwest at 20 mph, Barrel will pass south of the Cayman Islands with strong tropical storm force winds. It's projected to weaken to a Category 2 before making landfall on the Yucatan Peninsula early Friday. After crossing the Yucatan, it may regain Category 1 strength in the Gulf of Mexico. There remains uncertainty if it will impact northern Mexico or the South Texas coast, particularly around Brownsville or Corpus Christi, by the weekend.
Hurricane Beryl is moving near Jamaica before heading west towards Mexico and possibly Texas. FOX 4's Dan Henry is tracking the storm.
