To file your claim over the AT&T Data Breach: https://www.telecomdatasettlement.com/ The weather warnings are back for parts of North Texas. A heat advisory has been announced by the National Weather Service’s Fort Worth office from noon until 8 p.m. today. The alert warns of heat index values up to 107 degrees across the region. Dallas-Fort Worth may be slightly lower, as the max heat index forecasted for DFW International Airport is 104. Counties across northeast Texas are all under the advisory, as well as much of Oklahoma. Denton, Tarrant and Ellis counties make up the western edge of the alert. In other news, Texas House Democrats signaled Thursday they will likely return to the state for a second special session on redistricting and “take this fight to the courts” after the Legislature adjourns the current session on Friday as planned; amid a strained school budget and declining enrollment, the Plano Independent School District is halting school bus service for hundreds of students, leaving parents scrambling to find safe transportation for their children; AT&T customers whose information was stolen in two separate data breaches can apply for their share — up to $7,500 — of a $177 million settlement. The Dallas-based company agreed to settle a class action lawsuit following data breaches last year that resulted in the leak of sensitive information of millions of customers; and The Ramble Room and Monarch restaurants are hosting fundraisers for victims of the floods in the Texas Hill country.
