Area of interest forms in the Atlantic
SUMMARY: On September 11, 2025, Chief Meteorologist Tim Pandages reported on Hurricane Hub Live about tropical developments in the Atlantic and eastern Pacific.

Congressional measure honors Angelina Resendiz, aims to help future servicemembers
SUMMARY: Texas Congressman Vicente Gonzalez has proposed legislation honoring seaman Angelina Resendiz, aiming to improve military accountability for missing servicemembers. Resendiz was reported as absent without leave (AWOL) more than a week before her death, prompting calls for clearer reporting on armed forces members found deceased under similar circumstances in the past decade. The amendment requires the Secretary of Defense to provide Congress with comprehensive reports on such cases, ensuring the military properly distinguishes between AWOL and duty status whereabouts unknown. Advocates argue this will enhance safety and accountability in the armed forces. A sailor is currently in pretrial confinement linked to Resendiz’s death, with a hearing scheduled for September 18 in Norfolk.
The lawyer for Seaman Angelina Resendiz’s family is speaking out after one Texas congressman introduced an amendment in honor of the sailor.
