Uvalde- It's been three and a half years since a gunman entered Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, killing 19 students and 2 teachers.

In the time since, there have been investigations into what happened, reports on its aftermath and court rulings on records requests relating to it all.

Now, finally, one of the officers indicted in 2024 over law enforcement's response to the shooting is going to trial.

Ex-Uvalde schools officer Adrian Gonzales will be tried on child endangerment and abandonment charges in Corpus Christi starting Jan. 5.

We will keep you posted on the trial.

2025 for North Texas featured a wide range of weather extremes, from significant winter snowfall to record-breaking late-season warmth. Notable highlights include a North Texas winter storm in early January that produced 11 inches of snow and a record 89 mph microburst gust at DFW Airport in August. While the region saw its lowest number of 100-degree days since 2007, a new record was set in December for the longest streak of temperatures reaching 80 degrees or higher. Hydrological and severe weather events were also prominent throughout the year. The Lampasas River near Ding D**g reached its second-highest crest on record at 40.38 feet, and significant hail up to 4.5 inches in diameter was reported in May. Annual precipitation totals ranged from a low of 26.4 inches in Weatherford to a high of 61.21 inches in Palestine.
