@BrianNewCBS @ScannerRadioDFW @CBSNewsTexas Blue alerts?? All I see are Silver and Clear.
How about an update on the outdoor sirens in Kerr County? 🙄

3 in 10 Texans opt out of cellphone emergency alerts, a rate five times higher than other states. Texas also sends out more statewide Amber and Blue Alerts than any other state. This is why some Texas cities are sticking with outdoor sirens. @CBSNewsTexas projects.cbsnews.com/2025/tx-warnin…

youtu.be/aYZXtU_Dasw As reported by @cbsnewstexas: very few bills get unanimous support in both chambers but Senate Bill 3, did. My bill, SB 3, is now law, to bring life-saving outdoor warning siren systems to Texas’ flash flood alley communities by getting them to higher ground immediately! 📺 Tune in tonight at 10 p.m. on CBS News Texas for the full story and investigation! #txlege

When nearby counties installed flood sirens, Kerr Co. did not. Records show cost was a major concern for county officials.
Lt. Gov @DanPatrick told @JasonAllenLive on Monday if the city can’t afford them, the state will foot the bill.

Costly Solutions (🧵5/5)
FRA awarded Texas $80M in rail safety grants—that covers 6 projects. Texas allocated another $250M for rail safety projects. Statewide there are 9,000 crossings - not all need an overpass but many don't even have safety gates.

The Rise of Monster Trains in Texas (🧵1/5)
Freight trains are getting longer—some now stretch over 2 miles. They're more efficient and save railroads money, but when they stop, they can paralyze entire neighborhoods.

A blind, disabled Texas Marine had his homecare hours cut from 168 to 16 per week.
VA says he should have never been getting 168 - blaming a "clerical error".

@TGreenDenver Congratulations!
25 years ago this summer I had the opportunity to intern in your sports department at KMGH. You and Mike Nolan were always gracious with your time and advice to a young college kid who knew very little about the business. Thank you and best wishes.
