Here are your 6 Things to Know:

Felon Arrested After Standoff

A SWAT team and hostage negotiators were called in. At one point, the vehicle Granberry was in caught fire, and that’s when he was taken into custody.

Lake Levels

About a week ago, we saw some significant rain, but unfortunately, it didn’t do enough to solve the drought. On March 22nd, combined lake levels hit a low of 16.9%. After last week’s rain, they rose slightly to 17.7%, but now they’re back down to 17.3%.

Water Quality Concerns

Some people have noticed a change in the taste and smell of their drinking water recently. Corpus Christi Water says it’s due to a shift in where they’re getting their water from—specifically, they’re reducing water from Lake Corpus Christi and Choke Canyon Reservoir while increasing supply from the Mary Rhodes pipeline. This change could be behind the complaints. If you're concerned about your water, the city's staff is testing water at homes that have reported issues. If you’ve noticed a difference, don’t hesitate to call 3-1-1.
