It’s Monday June 15th. 

And born on this date in 1937... - Grammy winning Country music hall of famer Waylon Arnold Jennings.  He was supposed to be on the plane that crashed and killed Buddy Holly in what became known as the day the music died.  He gave his seat to J.P. The Big Bopper Richardson who had the flu and didn’t want to ride on the cold bus.  Waylon Jennings' first band as a teenager was called The Texas Longhorns.

Also born on this date is Brett D’Spain with D’Spain’s Termite & Pest Services and DD Exotics, Happy Birthday to Tres Clemons and Tim Edwards at the UPS Store in Leon Springs.

You can expect delays on 46 this week due to work crews reducing the road to one lane as they begin to install rumble strips. TxDOT area engineer Robert Madrigal said work will begin on the Boerne end of the highway, somewhere near the Spencer Ranch subdivision intersection. The crew will operate in a 2-mile-long work area, and flagmen will halt traffic and a pilot car will guide cars through the area. The work is expected to be completed by Thursday, beginning at 8:30 each day.  Do expect delays. 

The National Weather Service has issued a flood watch for parts of the HIll Country, including Kendall County all the way through tomorrow evening. Very humid tropical air and a stalling front will result in heavy rain, sometimes exceeding 2 to 3 inches per hour at a time. While the rain might be helpful, the risk for flash-flooding could be life-threatening so turn around, don't drown. 

Last Thursday, one of the Comfort Fire Department’s trucks was struck on I-10 while crews were working on an accident. No first responders or victims of the original accident were harmed, but the driver of the vehicle was injured and transported to receive medical care. Anytime you come up to an emergency vehicle, remember it’s Texas law to reduce your speed 20 miles per hour below the speed limit and slide over as much as you safely can.
