Texas Department of Public Safety troopers will no longer patrol North Texas tollways after the agency opted not to renew a key contract with the NTTA. https://t.co/XT9gCi0jaK
At this exact minute in 2013, the immense and erratic El Reno tornado touched down.
With winds of up to ~313 MPH in its sub-vortices, it produced some of the most extreme radar velocity imagery of all time.
Most of North Central Texas will remain hot and dry this weekend. Highs today will top out in the upper 80s and lower 90s, with warmer readings in the lower to mid 90s expected Sunday. A low chance (<20%) for showers and storms will exist near a dryline in western North Texas.
The Plains are king when it comes to unique storm interactions!
Watch as a developing, northward-moving storm becomes enveloped by an approaching supercell! This interaction likely played a role in the main supercell's history of tornadic activity this evening. #COwx
And just like the NFA taxes that were removed from SBR’s and suppressors by the Big Beautiful Bill, why are these items being registered if there are no taxes?
According to the Supreme Court in a ruling from 1937, the NFA is only constitutional because Congress has the legal authority to levy taxes, and the NFA registry is a registration not of the firearms, but of taxes paid.
So if the tax on everything covered under the NFA is $0…there is no constitutionally allowable reason for the NFA to exist. The Supreme Court must strike down the NFA.
WHY DFW DIDN'T SEE SEVERE WEATHER: Look I know many of you changed your plans based on the potential for severe weather today. Thanks to morning storms, DFW missed out on the BIG hail and winds that hit our southwestern counties. Here's why! #TXwx

Really cool radar imagery here. Millions of Mexican Free-tailed Bats just emerged from the Frio Bat Cave and immediately collided with these massive thunderstorms.
