**CANCELLED: PRESCRIBED BURN TODAY**

From our partners at @AustinWater, who were leading today’s prescribed burn:

“Out of an abundance of caution, crews have decided to postpone the prescribed burn that was planned for today on Austin Water's Water Quality Protection Lands.”

[Austin Fire Dept @austinfiredept]

**PRESCRIBED BURN ALERT**

[Austin Fire Dept @austinfiredept]

A cold front with strong winds of 15-25 mph, gusts up to 40 mph, & low humidity make for high fire danger. Because of that scary combo, a Red Flag warning has been issued from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. today. PLEASE take these precautions to prevent a wildfire! ➡️https://t.co/ldyUbHqAl4

[Cedar Park Police @CedarParkPD]

Officers and members of the Central Texas Regional SWAT Team are on scene of a barricaded subject in the 400 block of Marigold Lane.

At this time, this is an isolated incident, there is no threat to the public.
Updates to come.

[ATCEMS @ATCEMS]

#ATCEMS is on scene in support of @austinfireinfo. #ATCEMSMedics are evaluating one adult patient for complaints related to minor smoke inhalation (non-life threatening). Transport needs are still being determined, no further updates planned unless additional patients are found.

[NWS Austin/San Antonio @NWSSanAntonio]

A cold front will move through the region this evening, with breezy northerly winds developing overnight. By early Friday, even before sunrise, 15-25 mph sustained winds and gusts to 35 mph are expected over much of the region. Consider securing loose outdoor objects.

[Austin Fire Dept @austinfiredept]

There's some serious rain forecast for tonight/tomorrow, so #turnarounddontdrown! Don’t ignore low-water crossings and their barricades. And NEVER cross a road w/water covering it. A few inches can cause a life-threatening situation for you, your passengers, and 1st responders.

[NWS Austin/San Antonio @NWSSanAntonio]

Preliminary ice accumulation map is below. Some small adjustments will be needed before a finalized version is available, but this is close to what was observed. Widespread reports of 0.25-0.5+" of ice led to significant impacts. Thanks for your reports last week, everyone!
