This New Mobile Alert App Warns Texans of Extreme Weather

Spring is coming up on March 20th. In Texas, that means the weather will be perfect one minute, then intensely not the next. Whether you live in the Panhandle, Austin, TX, or anywhere else in the Lone Star State, there's a new app that can keep you informed when you need it most.

We hate Daylight Saving, everyone does. But at least Sunday was the better of the two time changes. Sure, we lost an hour of sleep but we also now have an hour more of sunlight at night. Maybe this year we can set it and forget it.
