Was Sunday nightās storm damage from straight-line winds or a tornado?
Read full article: Was Sunday nightās storm damage from straight-line winds or a tornado?SAN ANTONIO ā Editorās note: The National Weather Service determined that an EF1 tornado with up to 100 mph winds was likely. On Sunday night, both severe thunderstorm warnings and tornado warnings were ongoing around San Antonio after 7 p.m., when a squall line moved through the KSAT12 viewing area. Therefore, it can be difficult to determine whether any storm damage is technically from a tornado or straight-line wind gusts -- especially when squall lines occur at night. Our local Austin/San Antonio Weather Service office is currently in the process of determining when and if they will conduct a survey. In fact, another squall line is expected late Monday with a risk for damaging gusts and flooding.

Read full article: 203 sea turtles rescued in single day along Texas coastTexas ā An incredible 203 cold-stunned sea turtles were documented and rescued along the Texas coast on Wednesday, including more than 50 in Corpus Christiās Packery Channel, according to Texas Parks and Wildlife. Sea turtles become cold-stunned, rendering them unable to swim, when water temperatures drop to about 50 degrees or below. The Padre Island National Seashore Division of Sea Turtle Science and Recovery warned that more turtles could be found Thursday and cautioned boaters to look out for floating, lethargic sea turtles. Cold-stunned turtles might wash ashore or become stranded, often dying of exposure or predation, if theyāre not rescued quickly. More information about cold-stunned sea turtles can be found here.
