Great photos from Matt Reed in Nacogdoches. This picture was taken Tuesday with a dedicated Lunt Hydrogen Alpha solar scope. One image is the full disk and the other is one of the many prominences visible. Thanks Matt for the picture! #ETXwx #TXwx https://t.co/MdnpZ5rIPB

For many, it was the hottest day so far in 2025. Even hotter temperatures are on the way for Wednesday. #ETXwx #TXwx https://t.co/6Ia5K3WUfP
