@DallasFireRes_q out at 409 E. 9th St. on 4-alarm fire/apartment explosion. Fire under control. Family reunification at Adamson HS. Incident is still ongoing....
In addition to the wintry weather, we'll also have brutally cold temperatures and wind chills, particularly Saturday night and Sunday night with widespread single-digit lows. Expect wind chill values as low as -10°F.
Event-total (tonight through Sunday) ice accumulations will be 0.25" - 0.5" for a majority of the area, with slightly higher amounts forecast for parts of East Texas. Expect multi-inch sleet totals by Sunday morning as well, especially I-20 northward.
DALLAS - @TxDOT managed lanes will be closing after the morning rush hour until further notice due to anticipated #winter weather. This will allow crews to focus on main lane clearing operations. Plan your route/extra travel time ahead of evening rush hour. #txwx#dfwtraffic
Market St and Ross Ave #gasleak has been shut off and all but one building (at 1701 Market St.) has been reopened. Streets surrounding that location are still closed to traffic (vehicular and pedestrian). All DART train and bus services have resumed normal operations.
@DallasFireRes_q on scene of #gasleak at Ross and Market. Vehicle and pedestrian access restricted in area. @atmosenergy on location working to isolate and shut off leak.
It is with heavy hearts that @DallasFireRes_q reports the recent off-duty passing of Fire Rescue Officer, Jason Lee Parker, who selflessly served the @CityOfDallas for over 20 years. Please keep his family, friends and colleagues in your thoughts and prayers. #RIPBrother
