Governor Abbott Urges Land Owners Affected By Border Crisis To Submit Self Reporting Damage Survey Governor Greg Abbott is urging Texas land owners in border communities who have been affected by the influx of unlawful immigration to complete the state's Self Reporting Damage Survey to help identify damages suffered by land owners along the border and inform the state's ongoing efforts to secure the border. “I strongly encourage Texas land owners along the border to report any personal property damages they incur due to unlawful immigration," said Governor Abbott. "By completing the Self Reporting Damage Survey, our state will be equipped with the necessary data to continue addressing the ongoing crisis at our southern border and provide the support our land owners and communities need to stay safe and secure.” The voluntary survey, available in both English and Spanish, can be accessed by visiting: http://damage.tdem.texas.gov. Reporting damage is a voluntary activity, is not a substitute for reporting damage to an insurance agency, and does not guarantee disaster relief assistance.

Monitoring the Tropics - Discussion Tropical Weather Outlook NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL 200 PM EDT Tue Jul 13 2021 For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico: 1. Satellite derived surface wind data indicate that the non-tropical area of low pressure, located several hundred miles southeast of Cape Race, Newfoundland, is producing winds below gale force and limited showers and thunderstorms. Although environmental conditions are only marginally favorable during the next couple of days, some slight development is possible as it drifts generally southward over warmer waters. Toward the end of the week, the low is expected to accelerate north-northeastward and open up into a trough of low pressure in response to an approaching frontal system moving off of the New England coast. * Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent. * Formation chance through 5 days...low...10 percent.
Lavaca County Fire Weather Lavaca County Fire Danger Level: LOW (GREEN) When the fire danger is low it means that fuels do not ignite easily from small embers, but a more intense heat source, such as lightning, may start fires in duff or dry, rotten wood.

Flipping OFF the Switch on HOT Emergency Medical Vehicle Responses It continues to be all of our goals to have a safe EMS system for the patients we treat and transport and our dedicated workforce, to this end PLEASE take the time to view the webinar below and share with your membership. A special thanks to Matt Zavadsky for making this webinar available for all of us to learn from! Thank You, Joseph W. Schmider, State EMS Director How many people are injured or killed during a HOT response by EMS vehicles? How many EMS providers have been injured or killed during a HOT response? Is there any difference in patient outcomes from a HOT or COLD response? What REALLY is the public's expectation when it comes to HOT responses? What are the things that are preventing people from calling 911 for EMS (hint - it's the 'spectacle' it creates)? Get the answers to those questions and more! http://aimhi.mobi/ondemand/10737263
