🎀 Walking Together for a Cause! 🎀

La Salle County Fire Rescue crew were proud to attend the Breast Cancer Awareness Walk, showing their support and spending time visiting with participants and some truly inspiring survivors! 💗

It was a wonderful opportunity to come together as a community, share smiles, hear stories, and honor the strength and courage of those who have battled breast cancer.

To all the survivors, fighters, and families affected by breast cancer, we stand with you, we celebrate you, and we support you! 💪🎀

Be advised:
.Wind Advisory Through Saturday Afternoon.....Fire Danger Statement Through 8 PM Tonight...

Timing and Overview

The incoming cold front passage today will quickly lead to breezy conditions in its wake. Inland, wind gusts as high as 40 mph will easily knock around loose items and make for difficult road travel. Additionally, drier air will briefly lead to an elevated fire risk leading to a Fire Danger Statement across portions of the Brush Country/Rio Grande Plains. Across the bays and western Gulf waters, gale conditions are expected. The high surf will also lead to a high rip current risk and minor coastal flooding concerns. By Saturday afternoon, winds will weaken and seas will gradually decrease through Sunday.

South Texas Hazards
Wind: 20-30 mph gusting as high as 40 mph

Fire Weather
- Elevated Fire Weather Impacts:
- Fires may spread rapidly.
- Resistance to control efforts may occur.

The National Weather Service has issued a Flood Watch that is in effect until tomorrow, Oct 2nd at 7 PM for La Salle and Surrounding Counties. La Salle County is expected to receive 3 - 4 inches of rain between this afternoon thru tomorrow evening.

Excessive rainfall could result in flooding of creeks, streams, low-lying areas, flood-prone roadways, and areas with poor drainage.

⚠️ Use the following tips to stay safe and aware during potential serious weather

- Have multiple ways to receive weather warnings.
- Avoid low-water crossings and flood-prone roadways.
- Never drive through flooded roads — Turn Around, Don’t Drown!
- Do not drive around barricades.
- Be especially cautious after dark, when flooded roadways can be difficult to see.
- Be prepared to take action quickly if a Flash Flood Warning is issued.
- Keep children and pets away from drainage areas, creeks, and moving water.

A Flood Watch means flooding is possible, and conditions can change quickly.

We will continue monitoring weather conditions and post as we learn any updates.

Please use caution, stay informed, and do not take unnecessary risks around floodwater.

Stay Weather Aware. Stay Prepared. Stay Safe.

🌧️ Over the next several days periods of heavy rainfall and thunderstorms are expected across South Texas. 🌧️

The National Weather Service has issued a Flood Watch for La Salle County, with the potential for heavy rainfall and flash flooding through Friday. Forecast information indicates that repeated rainfall may lead to saturated soils, increased runoff, ponding, and rapidly changing conditions.

⚠️ Residents are encouraged to:

- Have multiple ways to receive weather alerts and warnings.

- Avoid flooded roadways — Turn Around, Don’t Drown.

- Never drive around barricades or attempt to cross low-water crossings when water is present.

- Secure outdoor items and prepare now for periods of heavy rain.

- Use extra caution when traveling, especially overnight when flooded roads can be difficult to see.

- Have an emergency plan in place and be prepared to act if a Flash Flood Warning is issued.

A Flood Watch means flooding is possible — it does not mean flooding is occurring everywhere. Conditions can change quickly, so please continue monitoring official weather information.

🚨 We will continue monitoring conditions and provide updates as necessary.

Stay alert. Stay prepared. Stay safe.
