    This is a more of a typical Texas official casting blames elsewhere.

    Who's fault is it that 40% of the staff at the local office was laid off? Who cut their budget by 60%. Half of the Houston office is vacant due to DOGE cuts

    I’m not gonna lie, their belief in weather manipulation is pretty funny

    Trump is the president, how come he’s not using the PS5 controller to control the weather like Biden was doing?

    Those are short-sighted and very problematic, but that does NOT automatically mean the NWS was at fault here.

    I’ve seen no such data, but I’ve seen local Texas officials behavior long enough to assume they are pushing blame elsewhere, and so quickly.

    nothing MAGAts do is for the benefit of the American people

    matter of fact, they actively seek to cause chaos, death, and destruction…and they are very successful in doing so

    Cell alerts were issued. It is not a surprise that someone like Noem doens't know what she's talking about.

    All NWS flash flood warnings, including the one issued after midnight on Friday, trigger Wireless Emergency Alerts, the emergency push notification sent through cellphone towers to all wireless phones in the emergency area, Fogarty said. That warning was updated nine times throughout Friday, each of which triggered separate alerts through the Emergency Alert System and the Wireless Emergency Alerts, Fogarty said.

    It goes deeper than just weather modification they need to investigate the magnets on the rims. No way the Rockets shoot that bad.
