Update: 2025-07-09
Description

Staff shortages at the National Weather Service may have made it harder to coordinate a response, and Texas lawmakers are now reconsidering a bill to improve local governments’ emergency communications infrastructure. Also: the economics of rebuilding wildfire-burnt homes with fire-resistant steel framing.
