The National Weather Service has expanded the risk area for severe storms. State emergency response resources are mobilized to support local response. Heed warnings from local officials, pay attention to the forecast in your community, and pack a go-kit.

It's Halloween and the end of daylight saving time tonight, which means more people are walking and commuting in the dark. It can be hard to spot pedestrians. Always stay alert, keep your eyes on the road and watch out for people on foot! 🌚 #BeSafeDriveSmart #DriveLikeATexan

Walking after dark? 🚶🌙 Take a little extra care to keep yourself safe. Wearing reflective clothing or carrying a flashlight can help drivers spot you on the road. Stay alert and stay visible! #BeSafeWalkSmart #DriveLikeATexan

Slow your roll, folks! Speeding can leave you with less time to react to what’s ahead. Slow down and give yourself enough time to respond when traffic or road conditions change. #BeSafeDriveSmart #DriveLikeATexan

When you’re sharing the road with big trucks, there’s no need to rush. Heavy traffic and construction can mean you need more time to react. Slow down, give trucks plenty of room and pass them only when it’s safe and legal to do so. #BeSafeDriveSmart #DriveLikeATexan

Don’t drive like an animal. 🫏 If you’re driving in areas with oil and gas activity, you’re sharing the road with lots of traffic. Be safe and follow the rules of the road. #BeSafeDriveSmart #DriveLikeATexan
