SUMMARY: A benefit show was held at the Sharks Comedy Club in downtown Dallas to honor 29-year-old comedian Henry Cruz, who was tragically killed in a hit-and-run accident last weekend. Cruz, a local stand-up comic with over two years of professional experience, was struck while walking with friends near the I-75 and 45 freeway ramp. The suspect, driving a dark car, remains unidentified. Friends and fellow comedians gathered to celebrate Henry’s life, sharing laughter and memories despite their grief. His best friend, Angel Hernandez, emphasized Henry’s fearless spirit and kindness, vowing to keep pushing forward in his legacy.

They say laughter is the best medicine, and Saturday night, folks in the North Texas comedy scene were not only looking to heal, but also raise some money.

SUMMARY: Meteorologist Pat Cavlin provides a Sunday update on the Atlantic tropics as we approach the hurricane season peak around September 10th. Currently, the tropics are unusually quiet with no well-organized storms or waves over open water. The only area being monitored is a disorganized tropical wave off Africa’s west coast, with about a 30% chance of development in coming days. The Caribbean remains calm due to wind shear, while storm complexes occur near Florida and southeast Texas but pose no threat to Houston. Activity is expected to increase from mid-September through mid-October, so residents should stay informed and prepared.
