On 5/25/26, at 2:20 pm,

I would like to take a moment to commemorate the lives lost 11 years ago today in our neighboring city of Acuna, Coahuila.

Today, marks the 11th anniversary of the devastating tornado that struck Acuna between 5:30 am and 6:00 am, resulting in nine fatalities and damage to over 1,500 homes.

Records indicate that the tornado remained on the ground for approximately 6 minutes and was unofficially rated as an EF3-EF4.

This event was one I deeply remember and stays with me as I had just recently graduated from A&M and return to Del Rio. I even had my whole family awake and in shelter as this storm actually tracked over Del Rio shortly but the tornado had lifted leaving a mesocyclone spinning right over the city according to some reports.

This was before I created the online page that you see today as well as was the main reason that Del Rio Weather Alerts was created and why I do what I do today. I appreciate the support and always it’s about keeping everyone safe and providing you the knowledge you need. Predictions may change but always be assured that you will be notified of any potential that may occur in the area.

I attached a radar snip I had took the night of the storm and circled the potential area that was showing significant rotation. It is an example of the Severe potential that is possible for the local area during severe weather season.

The page Soy de Acuñita Ranch did a great job on their commemorative post and shows some photos and videos of the damage that took place.

As well as I will attached the link of the article covering the storm 11 years ago in the comments.

As always stay weather aware and God Bless.

San Felipe Del Rio CISD would like to thank all the parents for all the patience and kindness they displayed as they waited to be reunified with their students. We are extremely grateful to all local law enforcement, emergency personnel, district staff, administrators, teachers, and support staff for their quick response and assistance throughout today’s evacuation and reunification.

Contractors and district staff are working to correct a problem with our air conditioning system. We believe the strong odor eliminated from our AC units.

We plan to have a normal school day tomorrow, but will make a final decision by 8 PM tonight.

Thank you for all your cooperation and understanding...
