As Floods Hit, Key Roles Were Vacant at Weather Service Offices in Texas

As Floods Hit, Key Roles Were Vacant at Weather Service Offices in Texas
When severe floods recently hit Texas, several critical positions at local National Weather Service offices were empty—meaning fewer experts were available to monitor and respond to the unfolding disaster. The vacancies included key leadership and forecasting roles, raising concerns about preparedness during extreme weather events.
Editor’s Note: Floods are bad enough on their own, but when the agencies meant to track and warn people about them are understaffed, the risks get even worse. This story highlights a worrying gap in disaster readiness—especially in a state like Texas, where extreme weather is becoming more frequent. If these roles stay unfilled, the next storm could catch communities even more off guard.

negativeTop Stories
Rugby legend Chris Ashton didn’t mince words after the British and Irish Lions’ disappointing performance against the Waratahs, calling their play "rubbish." He’s urging the team to ditch overcomplicated tactics and go back to basics—simpler, sharper rugby—if they want to turn things around.
Editor’s Note: When a seasoned player like Ashton speaks up, it’s a sign things aren’t clicking. This isn’t just about one bad game—it’s a wake-up call for the Lions to rethink their strategy before bigger challenges ahead. Fans will be watching closely to see if they can adapt.
Trump, GOP target ballots arriving after Election Day that feed conspiracy fears
negativeTop Stories
Trump and Republican leaders are zeroing in on mail-in ballots that arrive after Election Day, arguing that delayed counts fuel distrust in the election process. They’ve framed these ballots—often legally valid under state rules—as a source of potential fraud, even though there’s no evidence to support those claims. Critics say this rhetoric undermines confidence in elections and could lay groundwork for future disputes.
Editor’s Note: This isn’t just about counting ballots—it’s about shaping how people view the fairness of elections. By amplifying unfounded fraud concerns, the GOP risks deepening divisions and setting the stage for more post-election chaos, regardless of who wins. For voters, it’s another sign that trust in the system is becoming a political battleground.
IND vs ENG: Brook's rain warning to Gill comes true on Day 5; viral video resurfaces
neutralTop Stories
Remember that playful banter between England's Harry Brook and India's Shubman Gill during the second Test? Well, it’s gone viral—because Brook jokingly warned Gill about rain ruining India’s momentum, and guess what? Day 5 was washed out, nearly derailing India’s march to victory. The irony isn’t lost on fans, especially after Gill’s heroics (think record-breaking 269 and 161 runs) had put India in the driver’s seat.
Editor’s Note: Sports aren’t just about stats—they’re packed with human moments that stick. This clip resurfacing shows how fans love the blend of humor and unpredictability in cricket. Plus, it’s a cheeky reminder that even the best performances (like Gill’s) can’t always outplay the weather gods.
'People will ask if Shubman Gill trusts his attack': Ex-England captain
neutralTop Stories
Former England captain Nasser Hussain is putting the spotlight on India’s Shubman Gill, suggesting that if India doesn’t pull off a win on the final day of the second Test against England, questions will arise about Gill’s confidence in his bowling attack. Meanwhile, Mark Butcher sees a potential draw as a moral win for England, especially after India’s cautious late declaration. He’s urging England to go all out, not just for the result but to give fans an exciting finish.
Editor’s Note: Cricket fans love a high-stakes final day, and this Test is no exception. Hussain’s comments add pressure on Gill and India’s strategy, while Butcher’s take frames England as underdogs with nothing to lose. Whether it’s a nail-biting win or a gritty draw, the drama here isn’t just about the score—it’s about how both teams handle the mental game.
