Dangerous Texas heat wave shatters records

A killer heat wave grips Texas with 113 degree readings at Dallas Fort Worth and Wichita Falls, tying the highest metroplex temperature and prompting at least four deaths. The National Weather Service urges heat safety steps including fluids, light clothing, sun avoidance, and gradual acclimation while warning the danger rivals tornadoes or blizzards.

Summer Heat Strains Monahans Water and Power Systems

Summer heat triggers multiple breakdowns in Monahans as city wells near the Hogg Ranch and a pump by the golf course falter. City Manager Jack Forga cites heat and worn wear plates after a loose impeller, with storage levels dipping and residents urged to cut back lawn watering. Reports of air conditioner outages rise as electricity use hits a daily peak of 4,029,000 kilowatts on June 24, prompting energy-conservation advice from TESCO manager Lloyd Stoebner. Local incidents include a shattered plate glass window at Nino’s Gulf station and a sonic boom feel noted by residents.
