Meanwhile in West Texas today... 🌪️

This landspout tornado was spotted between Fort Stockton, TX and Sanderson, TX along HWY 285. A landspout is a type of weak, non-supercell tornado that forms from the ground up. Unlike traditional tornadoes that descend from a rotating storm, landspouts develop when surface winds converge along a weather boundary and get stretched upward by a growing, non-rotating thunderstorm.

Good Morning, Texas! June 19th is shaping up to be another classic Texas summer day where the forecast ranges from “pretty hot” to “are we cooking fajitas on the hood again?” North Texas will be warm enough to make iced tea disappear instantly. East Texas will be carrying humidity levels normally associated with tropical fish tanks. Central Texas and the Hill Country will spend the afternoon baking under bright sunshine while everyone collectively agrees outdoor chores can wait until October. Houston and the Gulf Coast continue competing for the title of Most Atmospheric Soup. South Texas is bringing serious heat, while West Texas gets sunshine, wind, and enough dust to qualify as seasoning. As the sun sets, temperatures will finally back off a little, settling into what Texans call “not terrible.” Which still means it’s warm enough to fry an egg on anything made of metal.

It's not just hurricanes that can do damage. Tropical storms can dump tons of rain as they slowly move over an area. Think 2 inches an hour for 24 hours. And the coastal Texas is table top flat so run off takes a while to drain. Claudette, Allison, Harvey are some memorable tropical storms.

The Waco Suspension Bridge opened in January 1870 as the first wire suspension bridge west of the Mississippi River. It was built by the same New York company that would later build the Brooklyn Bridge.

The bridge was constructed specifically to serve the Chisholm Trail cattle drives crossing the Brazos River. Before the bridge drovers lost cattle and men to the Brazos crossing every season. After it the crossing became routine.

The bridge carried cattle drives, settlers, commerce, and eventually automobiles for over a century. It still stands today as a pedestrian bridge over the Brazos.

It is one of the most consequential pieces of infrastructure in Texas history and most Texans have never thought about it as such. ⚡🌉
