CHARLESTON, S.C. (WCSC) – The National Weather Service canceled a severe thunderstorm watch for the Lowcountry Sunday afternoon after a line of storms moved offshore.

The watch had originally been in effect for Charleston, Berkeley, Dorchester, Colleton, Williamsburg, Georgetown, Beaufort, Jasper, Hampton, Allendale, Dillon, Florence, Horry and Marion Counties until 5 p.m.
But forecasters dropped it shortly after 3 p.m. after the storms had passed the area.
Storms did cause a few thousand power outages across multiple counties.

The National Weather Service received reports of downed trees and tree limbs across multiple counties.
The system also prompted a handful of severe thunderstorm warnings for multiple counties earlier in the day.
The Storm Prediction Center said most of the Lowcountry sat at a two in a five-point storm threat scale, with five being the worst threat.
Some Lowcountry counties were under severe thunderstorm warnings late Saturday night. A watch for 16 South Carolina counties, including Orangeburg County, expired at midnight.
Filming for Landman Season 2 is well underway, and Billy Bob Thornton can hardly contain his excitement, not just for the plot, but who he gets to work with in the latest installment of the fan-favorite Taylor Sheridan series.
In a May 2025 interview with Gold Derby, Billy Bob, who plays Tommy Norris on the show, revealed that he hopes to be working with Taylor and co. for the foreseeable future.
“[Landman] is a show I’d like to work on for a while; I told Taylor, I said ‘As long as you want me around, I’m here for this,’” he shares. “I really love the show. I love doing it, I love playing this character, and I love the people I work with. Not only the cast, but the crew also is just stellar.”

One Season 2 castmate, in particular, stands out. “[Sam Elliott] has always been a mentor and a hero of mine,” Billy Bob said in the interview. The two have previously shared the screen in 1883 and Tombstone. “I love the guy, we have a real special relationship in real life… It’s so good to see him; he lights my day up.”

News of Sam joining the Landman Season 2 cast broke in April 2025, with many fans thrilled for the addition.
“Ooohhh I was hoping for another season and Sam just made me even more excited,” one fan commented on the show’s Instagram reveal. “The patch just leveled up,” someone else wrote. “Perfect casting,” another fan concluded.
Meanwhile, Ali Larter, who plays Angela Norris on the show, also appears to be happy with her newest castmate. “Just three crows cackling,” she captioned a photo of herself with Sam and Michelle Randolph (Ainsley Norris). Again, fans couldn’t contain their excitement over Sam’s involvement in Season 2—even though his exact role remains unknown.
“Taking an already great show and making it exponentially better by adding Sam Elliott,” one fan commented. “How epic! Sam Elliott will fit in like a glove on and off screen with Landman,” someone else wrote. “Sam Elliott is in [the] cast! This show only gets better,” another fan exclaimed.
As it currently stands, Landman Season 2 is set to premiere in November on Paramount+. In the meantime, we hope for plenty more BTS snaps of the cast.

Ninguno huele a formol todavía. No lo tachen, no lo descarten, no lo sepulten. La lucha continúa. Junior no está eliminado de la posibilidad de clasificar a la final, y menos si pelea y juega como en la derrota ante el América, donde la mala definición, principalmente, redundaron en el resultado final (2-1).

Esa es la idea de César Farías y sus dirigidos, corregir los costosos descuidos defensivos, afinar la puntería y repetir una buena actuación que esté sellada con lo que marcan los triunfos en el fútbol: los goles. Con esa consigna, los ‘Tiburones’ se enfrentarán al Medellín, este domingo, a partir de las 6:15 p. m., en el estadio Metropolitano Roberto Meléndez, en la tercera fecha de los cuadrangulares semifinales.
Una victoria frente al ‘Poderoso’, que viene de superar 3-1 al Deportes Tolima en Ibagué, mantendrá a los rojiblancos vivitos y coleando en la búsqueda del paso a la gran final de la Liga I.
Después de la pobre y somnífera presentación de la selección Colombia ante Perú, uno de los peores equipos de la eliminatoria al Mundial (0-0), el Metropolitano volverá a vivir la fiesta del fútbol con su inquilino habitual.

Seguramente, por lo que ha sido el comportamiento de la afición este año, irán alrededor de 10 mil personas, la cifra de abonados para estos cuadrangulares. Ante esos 10 mil fieles, que suelen ir llueva, truene o relampaguee, Junior tiene que demostrar que tiene la calidad y el carácter para imponerse al cuadro paisa y seguir en la pugna por llegar a la finalísima.
Luego de la caída en el estadio Pascual Guerrero, Farías y sus pupilos trabajaron solitarios y en silencio, bajo la sombra de Néstor Lorenzo y sus seleccionados, que tenían todo el enfoque mediático en la ciudad.
No hubo atención de ningún tipo a la prensa. Se centraron plenamente en el juego contra el DIM y poco y nada se sabe de lo que prepararon. Seguramente habrá varias novedades en la alineación titular. Podría volver Jordan Barrera a la formación.

No se contará con Santiago Mele, que se encuentra concentrado con la selección Uruguay, ni con Teófilo Gutiérrez, que sigue lesionado.
Medellín viene con varios exjunioristas en su nómina: Éder Chaux, José Ortiz, Hómer Martínez, Léider Berrío, Bryan León y Luis ‘el Chino’ Sandoval.
La última vez que ‘el Tiburón’ y ‘el Poderoso’ se midieron en el ‘Metro’ fue el 6 de abril de 2025. El local se impuso 1-0 con gol de Carlos Bacca tras pase de Teófilo y craso error del arquero uruguayo Washington Aguerre.
Probables formaciones de Junior y Medellín.
Parece que Alejandro Restrepo está preparado para alguna sorpresa de César Farías. El técnico del Deportivo Independiente Medellín tiene clarísimo que el entrenador de Junior “siempre varía la formación titular” y eso espera en el cotejo que sus equipos disputarán en Barranquilla este domingo.
“Junior siempre es un equipo de cuidado, con muy buenos jugadores, con un gran entrenador, que siempre varia su formación titular, no tiene un once que repita, aprovecha la extensión de su nómina para hacer distintos cambios, ya hemos tenido la oportunidad de enfrentarnos en tres ocasiones con ellos, con este entrenador y nos conocemos bien, hemos competido bien en los partidos anteriores. Esperamos que con ese análisis y el buen presente del equipo podamos hacer un gran juego y podamos llevar esos tres puntos a casa para el remate del cuadrangular”, comentó Restrepo en un video emitido a través de las redes sociales del ‘Poderoso’.
El timonel antioqueño muestra respeto por los rojiblancos, pero confía bastante en el potencial de sus dirigidos y el trabajo colectivo que vienen exhibiendo. Por eso no le preocupa que se hayan ido perdedores en el último duelo entre ambos (1-0).
“Ningún partido es igual, todos los partidos tienen una motivación distinta, los intérpretes siempre son diferentes, seguramente nosotros no tendremos la misma nómina y posiblemente ellos tampoco. Normalmente se cambia por distintos motivos, por distintas circunstancias, ahora es un partido de final, un partido en el cual debemos estar muy atentos y concentrados, donde cada detalle suma y cuenta para el objetivo final que es ganar el juego y sumar puntos que nos vayan permitiendo que ese sueño de la clasificación se vaya convirtiendo en realidad. Será un juego de final, muy distinto, y esperamos estar a la altura”, puntualizó.
¡Parceee! Ya estamos en tierra caliente, papá. El Poderoso ya aterrizó en Barranquilla con toda la ilusión y el corazón encendido, listo pa’ dar la pelea este domingo contra Junior. Sí, señores, los muchachos ya están en modo cuadrangulares, y aunque la travesía tuvo su cuento, aquí estamos firmes como siempre. ¡Vamos con toda por ese tiquete a la final, mi llave!
Vos sabés cómo es este cuento… El viaje se nos enredó un poquito por la alta demanda hotelera en La Arenosa, todo por el partidazo de la Selección Colombia contra Perú por las Eliminatorias. ¡Eso estaba más lleno que el Atanasio en clásico, parce! Pero bueno, lo importante es que ya llegamos, con la frente en alto y los guayos listos pa’ bailar al ritmo del rojo.
Tanto fue el enredo que hasta la DIMAYOR tuvo que mover la fecha del partido, ¡como lo oís! El juego estaba programado pa’ el sábado, pero con todo el bololó, nos lo pasaron pa’ el domingo. Pero tranquilos, parceros, eso nos dio un día más pa’ afinar detalles, descansar el alma y cargar pilas pa’ salir a romperla en el Metropolitano.
¡Y cómo no estar entusiasmados si venimos de una victoria sabrosísima en Ibagué! Medellín le pintó la cara al Tolima y se trajo los tres puntos como los grandes. Ese resultado nos tiene más vivos que nunca en los cuadrangulares y el grupo está convencido de que este camino termina en fiesta poderosa. ¡La actitud está intacta y la ilusión está por las nubes, mi hermano!
Este domingo no es cualquier partido, es una final más en este camino, parce. Junior en su casa es bravo, no lo vamos a negar, pero nosotros tenemos con qué y sabemos que este equipo no se rinde nunca. Con disciplina, huevos y corazón vamos a buscar ese triunfo que nos acerque más a la gran final. ¡Así como nos gusta a los del Medellín!
A todos los parceros poderosos que están en Barranquilla o que van a ver el partido desde cualquier esquina del país, les decimos: ¡Crean, siempre crean! Este equipo está para grandes cosas y necesita que la energía roja fluya con toda. No estamos solos, somos una familia que nunca deja de alentar, en las buenas y en las malas.
Así que alistá la camiseta, sacá la bandera, encendé la fe y preparate pa’ gritar los goles del Poderoso. Que el domingo vamos con todo, sin miedo y con la mirada puesta en la gloria. ¡Vamos Medellín, carajo!
Parce, Fydriszewski es todo lo contrario a Jhon Durán

The Boston Red Sox and New York Yankees will meet for the third night in a row on Sunday Night Baseball for a decisive game three at Yankee Stadium. New York took game one of the series on Friday night while Boston bounced back on Saturday for an impressive road win.

The Yankees remain first in the AL East despite Saturday night’s setback, with a 39-24 record and a 21-11 record at home. Boston, on the other hand, has struggled this season, boasting a 31-35 record to sit second-to-last in the AL East ahead of only the 26-37 Baltimore Orioles. Considering the Red Sox entered this season with some expectations to have a bounce-back campaign, this season has been disappointing for Boston overall. Perhaps a road series win might help alleviate the tension and put the Red Sox back on track.
In game one of the matchup, the Yankees won 9-6 behind a three-for-five performance from Aaron Judge with one RBI. Jazz Chisholm Jr. also went three-for-five, though Chisholm had one home run and four RBIs, making him New York’s MVP for the evening.
In game two, however, the Red Sox bounced back in a big way, winning 10-7 in what was an exciting and high-scoring affair. First baseman Romy Gonzalez led the way for Boston with three hits in four at-bats, with one home run and two RBIs. Star shortstop Trevor Story also had a big game, going three-for-five with five RBIs in the contest.
Tune in to ESPN or ESPN Deportes at 6:30 p.m. ET on Sunday night to watch the biggest rivalry showdown the MLB has to offer when the Yankees host the rival Red Sox at Yankee Stadium for the decisive game three of their three-game set.

DALLAS – North Texas is facing a significant severe weather event Sunday night, with the potential for widespread damaging winds, large hail, and possible tornadoes.
Sunday Forecast
Dallas weather: June 8 evening forecast
Ali Turiano gives the latest in severe and tornado warnings across the DFW metroplex. The flood threat continues to rise and 80+ MPH high winds is also expected to be in effect.
Big picture view:
The primary threat will be powerful, straight-line winds, with gusts potentially reaching 80 to 95 mph as a line of storms moves through the region. The Storm Prediction Center has issued a Level 4 out of 5 “moderate risk” for a large portion of North Texas, indicating the potential for a significant severe weather outbreak.
“This has the potential to be one of the greatest severe weather events that we’ve seen so far this spring, just with that high wind potential,” Capps said. She noted that winds of that magnitude can cause damage equivalent to an EF-0 or EF-1 tornado.
Emergency Response Resources
What they’re saying:
Governor Greg Abbott announced that he has directed the Texas Division of Emergency Management (TDEM) to activate additional state emergency response resources ahead of increased threats of severe weather and flooding expected to impact the state over the next several days.
“Texas stands ready to deploy all necessary resources to support Texans as severe weather moves across our state that has the potential to bring flash flooding and heavy rain,” said Governor Abbott. “Texans are urged to remain weather-aware, regularly check road conditions, and heed the guidance of state and local officials to ensure the safety of themselves and their loved ones. Regularly monitor roadways before traveling and check TexasFlood.org for flood information. Remember: Turn Around, Don’t Drown.”
At the direction of Governor Abbott, the following state emergency response resources remain available to support local severe weather response operations:
Texas A&M Engineering Extension Service (Texas A&M Task Force 1 and Texas Task Force 2): Swiftwater Rescue Boat Squads, Type 3 Urban Search and Rescue Teams
Texas Division of Emergency Management: The State of Texas Incident Management Team to support deployed emergency response resources across the state
Texas National Guard: Personnel and high-profile vehicles to assist stranded motorists
Texas Department of Transportation: Personnel monitoring road conditions
Texas A&M Forest Service: Saw Crews to assist with clearing of roadways, Texas Intrastate Fire Mutual Aid System (TIFMAS) Strike Teams to support local emergency services
Texas Parks and Wildlife Department: Game Wardens, rescue boat teams, and helicopters with hoist capability to assist with flood rescues
Texas Department of Public Safety: Helicopters with hoist capabilities, Texas Highway Patrol Troopers, and the Tactical Marine Unit
Texas Department of State Health Services (Texas Emergency Medical Task Force): Severe Weather Support Packages consisting of medics, ambulances, and all-terrain vehicles
Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service: Disaster Assessment and Recovery Agents, as well as County Extension Agents to support agricultural and livestock needs
Public Utility Commission of Texas: Power outage monitoring and coordination with utility providers
Railroad Commission of Texas: Monitoring of the state’s natural gas supply and communication with the oil and gas industry
Texas Commission on Environmental Quality: Air/water/wastewater monitoring
Timeline:
The line of storms is expected to approach northwestern North Texas around 8 p.m. and move into the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex between 10 p.m. and midnight. It is forecast to exit the area to the east and southeast between 1 a.m. and 2 a.m. Monday.
“The initial storms that move in from the north and west will have that tornado threat, as well as a large hail threat, but wind continues to be the greatest concern,” Capps said. An increasing flood threat is also a concern due to the potential for heavy rainfall.
Live Radar
Earlier Sunday, scattered showers and some thunderstorms were reported in the far eastern and northeastern parts of North Texas, with some storms crossing the Red River producing hail.
Daytime hours on Sunday are expected to be hot and humid before the storms arrive. High temperatures are forecast to reach the low to mid-90s, with a heat index making it feel like 100 to 104 degrees.
The active weather pattern is expected to continue through the week. Multiple rounds of showers and thunderstorms are in the forecast from Tuesday through Thursday, bringing a continued threat of heavy rain and potential flooding.
7-Day Forecast
Residents are advised to stay weather-aware, have multiple ways to receive warnings, and secure outdoor objects that could become projectiles in high winds.

Powerful thunderstorms are expected to pop up in the Plains on Sunday, with forecasters warning that storms could produce hail larger than 5 inches, 80-100 mph wind gusts and even some tornadoes in portions of Texas and Oklahoma. FOX Weather Meteorologist Jane Minar breaks down the latest on Sunday, June 8, 2025.
Fast Facts:
Potential derecho could develop in portions of Texas and Oklahoma.
Destructive storms with 80-100 mph wind gusts and up to 5-inch hail expected in the southern Plains.
Tornadoes may be embedded within the main line of storms on Sunday.
DALLAS –Millions of people in Texas and Oklahoma, including the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex, will need to be on alert Sunday as the southern Plains braces for powerful storms packing destructive, hurricane-force wind gusts, massive hail and even some tornadoes.
In its latest update, NOAA‘s Storm Prediction Center (SPC) noted that there could be a “derecho potentially developing into this evening and overnight, especially across much of North Texas and southern Oklahoma.”
The SPC issued a Particularly Dangerous Situation Severe Thunderstorm (PDS) Watch for western and central Kansas, northwest Oklahoma and the Texas Panhandle. The NWS warns widespread damaging winds with gusts up to 90 mph are possible through Sunday night.
A PDS Severe Thunderstorm Watch is extremely rare, according to the FOX Forecast Center. The NWS has only issued these severe warnings 25 times since 2006.

Now, the FOX Forecast Center said that Sunday has the chance to be a “very significant severe weather day.”
The SPC has upgraded the severe weather threat in portions of the south-central U.S. on Sunday to a Level 4 risk on its 5-point severe thunderstorm risk scale.

This upgraded threat includes nearly 7.5 million people in cities like Dallas, Fort Worth, Arlington, Plano and Garland in Texas.
More than 4 million people in cities like Oklahoma City and Norman in Oklahoma, as well as Lubbock, Amarillo and Abilene in Texas are in a Level 3 out of 5 risk.
WATCH VS. WARNING: HERE ARE THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THESE WEATHER TERMS THAT COULD SAVE YOUR LIFE
This graphic shows the damaging wind threat on Sunday, June 8, 2025. (FOX Weather)
The FOX Forecast Center said that while there is a tornado threat on Sunday, the bigger threat will be destructive wind gusts between 80 and 100 mph within the main line of the storms. That’s because strong winds aloft in the mid-levels of the atmosphere will exist.
A pocket of cooler air will also be in place, which will then help some of the significant wind gusts reach the surface. The dense, cooler air, along with torrential rain, will serve as the pathway for the winds to work toward the ground.

In addition, the SPC said that hail up to 5 inches, which is larger than a grapefruit, is also possible.
The FOX Forecast Center said that the timeline for the storms to begin to fire up will likely be in the afternoon hours on Sunday, with storm activity peaking in the late afternoon and early evening.
Supercell thunderstorms are likely in Oklahoma and Texas, and the wide coverage of storms will then eventually form into a potentially intense mesoscale convective system (MCS).
