Do you remember these record-setting temps during the summer of 1980? After hearing several comparisons this year, I spent the day digging through the @NBCDFW archives to give you a look back. Check it out at 10.

I need massive mutual aid at least 12 ambulance to respond to a Perryton TX. We have massive damage over 50+ homes destroyed and heavy damage downtown. #txwx

VIDEO: “Let go of my daughter. Now.” Crowley couple fought off a man who they say tried to kidnap their daughter from their home. Carlos Ortiz says the suspect asked him about his truck, if he was selling. Then grabbed his daughter @NBCDFW Next at 10: nbcdfw.com/news/local/cro…

Yesterday, families from Uvalde tried to meet with Calendars committee members. Mostly met by staffers. @BCross052422: “I can wait. I got nothing but time. You see, when you lose a kid…especially in this way, you ain’t got shit left to lose.” @NBCDFW nbcdfw.com/news/local/rai…

Be like Alaric. Ask yourself, is it worth it? If not, stay safe and off the roads. #NBCDFWWeather

NEW: Embattled Uvalde police chief Pete Arredondo has been fired. @NBCDFW

The @CityofFortWorth Animal Shelter took in nearly 1,700 surrenders in just a matter of weeks. NBC 5's @PhotoMikeO got a closer look at the growing problem animal shelters across North Texas are dealing with. on.nbcdfw.com/CHJDc2I #ClearTheShelterDFW

@NBAonTNT Kenny trying to write “precarious” before he has to talk.

Thankful for Myeshia Wesley’s willingness to share her story. Also encouraged to see volunteers, good samaritans and organizations like @NotMySonDFW still on the ground helping those impacted by the storm. @NBCDFW nbcdfw.com/news/local/loc…

North Texas #COVID19 cases: 42,292 in Dallas County & 526 deaths 22,002 in Tarrant County & 299 deaths 5,098 in Denton County & 45 deaths 5,456 in Collin County & 65 deaths 1,972 in Ellis County & 21 deaths 577 in Rockwall County & 17 deaths 1,222 in Kaufman County & 5 deaths

.@DCHHS reports 570 cases and 1 death. Another daily record high number of #COVID19 cases. We’re also announcing one more deaths bringing the total up to 352 deaths. I’ve also sent a letter to the Governor asking for mandatory masking and a new “Stay Home, Stay Safe” order.

@TheRealLucasDG Thank you! It was a pleasure and honor to be there to capture his last day.

Do you have any information on the whereabouts of #VanessaGuillen? 20yr old soldier from Houston vanishes while assigned to Fort Hood. She left behind keys & wallet. She’s been missing since 4/22/20. #FindVanessaGuillen

.@DCHHS reports 298 cases and 7 deaths. Today’s new number of #COVID19 cases ties with the highest day thus far, but keep in mind that we have more testing capability this week and that will continue to ramp up.
