    The storm that changed Galveston (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    The Gulf was already crossing parts of Galveston when Saturday morning began. Unusually large swells rolled toward the island. Water covered low streets despite winds blowing from the north. Residents gathered near the beach to watch the increasingly violent surf. The prosperous port city had no seawall, little elevation and no practical way to see what was approaching from across the Gulf of Mexico. By nightfall, much of the city would be destroyed. The hurricane that struck Galveston on Septem

    Does Bexar County's new emissions test actually work? (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    SAN ANTONIO - Beginning November 1, hundreds of thousands of Bexar County motorists will face a new requirement when they renew their vehicle registration: an annual emissions inspection. The reaction has been intense. Some drivers see it as another fee. Others question whether checking passenger cars will make any meaningful difference in San Antonio’s air quality.

    Status: Preliminary forensic reconstruction Important: The National Hurricane Center’s final Tropical Cyclone Report has not yet been issued. Track, intensity, rainfall and impact figures may be revised during post-storm analysis. Tropical Storm Edouard never became a hurricane. Its strongest sustained winds were estimated at 60 mph, and its tropical-storm-force wind field remained relatively compact. But that description does not capture the storm’s most consequential impact. After crossing the

    How AI could change the first 24 hours after a hurricane (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    The hurricane has moved inland. The wind is beginning to ease. The rain is slowing. Families who spent hours listening to the roar outside are beginning to emerge. But for emergency managers, utility crews and first responders, another critical phase of the disaster is just beginning. What happened — and where is help needed first? Researchers at Texas A&M University are working on new ways to answer those questions faster, combining engineering, drones, three-dimensional modeling and artificial

    Hurricanes that hit San Antonio without hitting San Antonio (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    SAN ANTONIO - San Antonio is more than 100 miles from the Gulf Coast. History shows that's not nearly far enough to ignore a hurricane. When people in San Antonio think about hurricanes, the first images that come to mind are usually along the Texas coast: boarded-up homes, enormous waves, storm surge and hurricane-force winds. But some of the biggest tropical impacts on San Antonio haven't looked anything like that. The hurricane doesn't have to come here. Sometimes, the water does. History pro
