So, go ahead and put it on your calendar. November 30th. That's the last day of Hurricane Season 2020.

We're usually done with the tropical stuff by this time of the year. Except that we forgot one thing this year...It's 2020.

It's hard to believe that Hurricane Rita was actually 15 years ago. We've made it to the 15th anniversary...that's crazy...

Hurricane Laura was five storms ago. FIVE. And that was just two weeks ago. Now, we're already on Tropical Storm Rene.

One of the people that made their way into the devastation of Lake Charles was Luke Tarbutton, owner of Shoot Perfect in Lufkin.

It's anyone's guess as to what these systems will become - if they become anything. I'd be alright with them just fizzling out before they ever reach the Gulf.

There are some things that we don't think about during storms. Luckily, organizations like TxDOT DO think about such things, and they're there to remind us.

It's never a comforting feeling when The Weather Channel sends ANY of their veteran reporters to your area.

We'll just keep on and power through. Make sure that you download our station apps to stay up to date on the latest weather and news. Why? Because, 2020.

As they always are, the names for the 2020 storms have been decided on, and they're ready to go.

So, will a storm be named after you this year? Did a friend or family member's name make it?

Can you imagine being without electricity for months? That would change daily routines to say the least. About eighty percent of the power has been restored in Puerto Rico after last year's monster hurricane, and they have East Texas utility workers to thank for some of that.
