AUSTIN (KXAN) -- Some of the hottest September temperatures on record are expected in Central Texas on Friday, but things really improve in our forecast next week.Austin set a record high temperature of 105 degrees on Thursday after our third-consecutive record-warm morning.

'Healthy looking trees are dropping large branches'It's something Greg Webb said he's seen personally while living in Wimberley. "Walking down to the river and a pretty big limb, probably about this big diameter, just fell out of the blue," Webb said. "Then we got down to the river and we hadn't been there 10 minutes and right across the river, a really large pecan, a limb fell."He said the tree limbs just started falling recently. "These very healthy looking trees are dropping large branches," Webb said. Webb said it sounded like a loud crack when a tree limb fell near his backyard.

High school football: Week 2 predictions, Friday edition

Published Tue, 24 Dec 2024 12:14:43 GMT

Here are some of Friday’s top high school football games involving teams from the East Metro and western Wisconsin:Mahtomedi (0-1) at Central (1-0), 5:30 p.m.Central was just as dynamic as it expected to be in the running game Week 1, compiling more than 250 yards on the ground in its win over Bloomington Kennedy. The Minutemen have a mashing offensive line and elite athletes to take advantage of the holes. But how will Central hold up against a traditionally physically dominant program like Mahtomedi? Especially a likely angry Mahtomedi team looking to rebound from a one-sided season-opening loss to Brainerd. OUR PICK: Central 21, Mahtomedi 20Lakeville North (1-0) at Rosemount (1-0), 7 p.m.Lakeville North’s dominant Week 1 victory over Stillwater signaled a potential return to prominence for the Panthers, as their previously young roster of players is all grown up and ready to win. But a victory over the defending state runner-up would serve as a more formal announcement that...

Stephen L. Carter: Televising Trump’s trials is a mistake

Published Tue, 24 Dec 2024 12:14:43 GMT

I’ll admit to being troubled by the Aug. 31 ruling by the judge in Donald Trump’s upcoming Georgia trial that the proceedings will be televised and live-streamed. With all due respect, I’d like to offer a brief dissent. I’m no fan of former President Trump. But I’ve long agreed with Chief Justice Earl Warren, who argued a bit over a half-century ago that criminal defendants should be able to veto cameras at their trials.Defense lawyers have argued for decades that the intrusion of cameras might alter the behavior of witnesses, counsel, perhaps even judge and jury. Though the evidence thus far hasn’t borne out this worry, the issue remains hotly contested. But my own concern is less about whether televised trials are fair to the defendant than about the effect they might have on the audience.The case in favor of televising Trump’s trial is most clearly put in the recent letter from leading Democrats to the Judicial Conference of the United St...
