Morning Forecast – Tuesday, Oct. 1st
SUMMARY: Meteorologist Chase Ward discusses current weather patterns, noting scattered light showers moving south from Columbia. While some areas may briefly need an umbrella, the precipitation is expected to fade as dry air moves in from the north. Afternoon temperatures will rise into the mid-upper 80s, with a cold front expected to bring cooler, drier air tonight. A tropical disturbance in the Gulf has a 40% chance of developing, with the potential for increased rain late in the week. Overall, the weekend looks pleasant with sunshine and temperatures trending towards seasonable averages in the lower 80s.
An upper level low pressure ahead of a cold front has allowed for some patchy showers to develop this morning. Clouds will linger through the afternoon as we climb to the upper 80’s for daytime highs. Skies will clear overnight with some slightly cooler temperatures after the cold front passes. We will rebound back to the upper 80’s by Friday as a tropical disturbance enters the Gulf of Mexico. Still some uncertainty as far as its development is concerned, but it will aid in showers and thunderstorms across the gulf coast.

Law enforcement agencies slam Bexar County sheriff’s policy that rejects certain inmates from jail
SUMMARY: Bear County law enforcement agencies express concern over a new booking policy by Sheriff Javier Salazar, which delays jail intake for suspects requiring medical screening. The directive, aimed at addressing jail deaths, mandates that suspects detoxing from substances or with serious medical conditions must be evaluated at a hospital before booking. This has led to significant delays and complications for officers, with reports of suspects being released instead of booked. Smaller agencies worry that the policy jeopardizes public safety. Despite the concerns raised, Sheriff Salazar maintains that the policy is necessary to improve health outcomes for detainees.
Several area law enforcement agencies said a new directive from Bexar County Sheriff Javier Salazar puts public safety at risk.
