As of 4 pm CDT, NHC has issued A Tropical Storm Warning for the lower Texas coast from Port Mansfield southward to the Mouth of the Rio Grande River. #RGVWX
This is infuriating and unacceptable. Our children are our most precious gift and should never undergo this type of abuse. I'm pleased the Texas Rangers will be investigating and pursuing charges against any suspect involved in this matter. However, this should not stop there.
Heavy rainfall can be expected through tonight as Tropical Storm #Nicholas approaches the Middle TX Coast. Rainfall amount of 4-6" are expected, with locally higher amounts possible. A Flash Flood watch is in effect. Flooding most possible in urban areas, small creeks & streams.
Threats & Impacts expected from Tropical Storm #Nicholas through Tuesday:
- Rainfall 4-8", isolated higher
- Storm Surge of 2-4'
- Strong winds > 50 mph, gusts near 75 mph
- Minimal tornado threat at this time
Prepare now & heed advise from local officials. #txwx#stxwx
Are you prepared? A tropical system does not have to be hurricane strength to be deadly. Tropical storms can produce strong winds, as well as heavy rainfall, which can lead to flooding. Don’t let your guard down when there’s a tropical storm watch #txwx#stxwx
7 PM Tropical Update: The NHC continues to monitor an area of disturbed weather w/ a HIGH (80%) chance of development w/in the next 5 days. If this system develops, it could bring dangerous impacts to South Texas such as storm surge, strong winds & heavy rainfall.
Stay prepared

@DrMattGutierrez This is HUGE for Seguin ISD! Congratulations!! Couldn’t have happened without your vision and support, the leadership of the board of trustees, and the tireless work, commitment, and dedication of @PeteSilvius.
@TLU_President The Center for Mexican American Studies in Langner Hall. As a commuter and first generation student, it was always inviting, had food, drinks, books on Mexican Americans, computers, printers, friends always willing to help, and great conversations with Profe Juan Rodriguez.
This Memorial Day, our observance of this special day may be different, but our feeling of great appreciation to those who have died in service to our nation, and to their families, is stronger than ever. Read my Memorial Day message here, https://t.co/tTXVpxgB12
@Equitable_Edu I agree! How do programs like Liink that cost $25,000 per campus help us close the gaps? Couldn’t we use that money instead for a teacher aid or to supplement teachers for after school tutoring? @SeguinISD
@DrMattGutierrez@TexasTribune “At the same time, hundreds of high-poverty schools received A grades, including many in South Texas. Those are just some of the takeaways from this year's ratings.”
