How to make clouds at home | FOX 7 Austin
SUMMARY: In today’s “Did You Know with Adalie Row,” Adalie and her assistant Libby explore the concept of high and low pressure by creating a cloud in a bottle—a fun, DIY science experiment anyone can try at home. They instructed to fill a bottle with some water and rubbing alcohol before tightly securing the lid and twisting it to build pressure. Upon releasing the pressure, a cloud forms inside. After a successful demonstration, they moved to a larger setup using a bike pump to create more pressure. The activity highlights the science behind clouds and encourages viewers to experiment themselves.

In this “Did You Know”, FOX 7 Austin meteorologist Adaleigh Rowe and her assistant Libbi Farrow show how you can make your own clouds at home.

AMBER Alert: One of the founders believes changes should be made to system | FOX 7 Austin
SUMMARY: The Amber Alert, created in 1996 by Diana Simone and Tarant County Sheriff D. Anderson, was designed for high-threat child abduction cases. Simone now believes the system is oversaturated and misused, with alerts issued for less critical situations, diluting its impact. Some law enforcement uses it as a scare tactic in custody disputes, straying from the original intent of warning imminent danger. Both founders advocate for revising Amber Alert criteria and updating its notification system, emphasizing that routine alerts reduce public attention. Simone suggests modernizing the technology to deliver alerts less disruptively and to restore the system’s effectiveness.

For nearly 30 years, the AMBER Alert has helped locate hundreds of children, but one of its founders believes changes should be made to make the emergency alert system more effective

Border encounters down 94% in Trump’s first two months
SUMMARY: U.S. Customs and Border Protection reported 11,709 and 11,017 border encounters in February and March respectively, reflecting individuals apprehended or deemed inadmissible. From October 2021 to December 2024, encounters averaged 186,825 monthly, 94% higher than early Trump administration numbers. Retired Sheriff Clint McDonald emphasized the immigration issue requires congressional and executive action. At the Southwest Border Sheriff’s Coalition (SWBSC) meeting in Austin, Sheriff Eusevio Salinas Jr. noted improved border patrol activity since Trump’s term but fears resource cuts with facility closures, including a booking center in Jim Hogg County. He highlighted jail space shortages and concerns over Texas legislative proposals demanding longer inmate stays without bond for undocumented felony suspects. Governor Greg Abbott’s emergency bail reform agenda aligns with these challenges.
