The 1953 Waco tornado remains the deadliest in Texas history, killing over 100 people and destroying $50 million in property. The disaster served as a watershed moment for meteorology, leading to a conference at Texas A&M that established the state's first radar network using military surplus equipment to improve early warning systems.
Law enforcement arrested three men in North Carolina for allegedly stockpiling weapons and ammunition in preparation for the Jade Helm 15 military exercise. The investigation involved a military surplus store owner who acted as an FBI informant after becoming concerned about the suspects' purchases. The arrests highlight ongoing tensions regarding domestic military training and conspiracy theories surrounding FEMA regions.
