• **Tropical Storm Edouard — Texas Prepared for the Worst** — Southeast Texas avoided the worst-case scenario from Tropical Storm Edouard, but heavy rain, flooding concerns and power outages still…
Edward weakened to a tropical depression after making landfall near Texas-Louisiana border, but heavy rainfall has created dangerous conditions across Southeast Texas.
Some areas have received more than 20 inches of rain, flash flooding remains a threat, and tens of thousands of Texans have experienced power outages.
For law enforcement, this is exactly why preparation begins long before a storm makes landfall.
Officers still have to answer calls, navigate flooded roadways, respond around downed trees and power lines, and protect communities while their own families are dealing with the same storm.
