Dallas-Fort Worth's Resilience Shines: Spring Storms, Tragic Accident, and Local Heroes
Good morning, Dallas-Fort Worth. This is Morgan Riley with your local news update.
Word on the streets of Dallas-Fort Worth is that spring storms have arrived with a bang. Just two days ago, on March 25th, hailstorms pelted parts of North Texas, leaving residents scrambling to protect their vehicles and property. Viewers shared photos of hail ranging from pea-sized to golf ball-sized, a stark reminder of the unpredictable weather our region often experiences this time of year.
In a tragic turn of events, a Fort Worth mother and her 1-year-old son lost their lives after their vehicle crashed into the Trinity River. Authorities are still investigating the cause of this heartbreaking accident. Our thoughts are with the family during this difficult time.
On a brighter note, let's talk about a local hero who's making waves in the world of therapeutic riding. ManeGait, a therapeutic riding center in McKinney, is expanding its unique program that brings hope to those with disabilities. The center's equestrian therapy has been transforming lives, proving that sometimes, the best medicine comes on four legs.
Looking ahead, basketball fans are in for a treat. The American Athletic Conference Men's Basketball Championship is set to tip off at Dickies Arena. Our very own North Texas Mean Green are entering as the No. 2 seed, giving local fans something to cheer for. It's a perfect opportunity to experience March Madness right here in Fort Worth.
Now, let's talk weather. We're in for a warm week ahead, folks. Temperatures are expected to stay above normal, potentially making this one of the top 10 warmest Marches on record. Don't pack away those shorts just yet!
For those looking to enjoy the pleasant weather, the Fort Worth Botanic Garden is launching a new monthly series called Blooms & Beats. It's a family-friendly event combining the beauty of nature with live music and local food trucks. The inaugural event kicks off this Friday, featuring The Seven6 Band.
As we wrap up today's update, let's take a moment to appreciate the resilience and spirit of our community. From weathering storms to celebrating local heroes, Dallas-Fort Worth continues to show its strength and unity.
