Weather

After last Summer’s sizzling heat and drought you may wonder how this year is shaping up so far.

The blazing heat has returned to the Texarkana Area.

This could be our hottest day so far in 2012.  The National Weather Service has issued a heat advisory for Texarkana and the surrounding area from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Tuesday June 26.

A Severe Thunderstorm warning in effect for portions of northeast Texas.

During the storms early Tuesday morning I got a call from the Power transmitter that we had no Electricity.

Railfest is today from 11am til 11pm in the Front Street Plaza in Downtown Texarkana.

Daniel Y. Go/Flickr Summer is just around the corner and that always means tons of activity for my family and I. Whether transporting newly minted high school graduates to college, taking younger kids to summer camp, or simply preparing for a relaxing weekend by the lake, there are plenty of plans to make and details to iron out ...

The next 4 weeks will be the peak of the Severe Weather “tornado” season in the Four States Region.

According to the weather forecast Texarkana had a 30% chance of rain last night. At my house it was 100 percent chance of hail!

It has been a busy week for storms in our neck of the woods. Monday, Tuesday and even overnight on Wednesday, which was unexpected. I had to pull a tree out of the road to get to work Wednesday morning. This is what the storms looked like from my back porch:

As the storms passed through the Texarkana area Tuesday, our awesome listeners took pictures and sent them to us! If you have any you would like us to post, email them to us!

So, after a long day of dealing with storm watches, then warnings, I was anxious to get home and microwave a frozen dinner or something, but noooo.  I got home to realize I had no electricity.  Then I realized we had no electric wires!
