A series of unexplained sonic booms has rattled Winters over the past month, shaking windows and buildings and, in one instance, prompting Winters ISD to place its schools on a brief lockdown.
Winters residents described the booms as loud explosions, often followed by the sound of an aircraft overhead.
“It sounded like an explosion,” Ronnie McWhirter said. “It was really loud. It rattled all the windows in my house.”

“We’ve had lots of citizens talking about it, and they all have the same experience,” O’Dell said. “It rattles the windows.”
O’Dell said the booms have also been felt at City Hall, where windows in her office shake when they happen.

An Abilene barbecue restaurant is drawing national attention as it sits atop USA Today’s Best Texas-style barbecue competition.
Jay’s BBQ Shack is currently listed in first place in the contest. Owner Jay said the restaurant learned about a week ago that it had been nominated.
“We found out about a week ago that we were nominated by USA Today for a top ten Texas-style barbecue restaurants in the nation. And they narrowed it down to 20. And then everybody votes for the top ten, and currently we’re in first place,” Jay said.
The recognition comes for a business that opened in 2015, starting as a catering operation before moving to a food truck and eventually into a brick-and-mortar location.
Behind the scenes, the work starts early. Jay said the crew fires up the pits around 3:30 in the morning and cooks meat for hours before customers arrive.
“We started at 3:30 in the morning, fi...

The annual Clyde Pecan Festival returned to Bulldog Community Park on Saturday, bringing together local vendors, food, live entertainment, and activities for attendees of all ages.
Among the festival’s attractions was a $300,000 robotic dog from Dyess Air Force Base, giving festivalgoers an up-close look at a piece of emerging technology.
Tyler Dossett, the noncommissioned officer in charge at Dyess Air Force Base, explained that the robotic dog is one of three at the base.
“They invited us out here to bring the robot dog and show the community what we have at Dyess,” Dossett said. “Not too many people know what they are. Honestly, a lot of people are scared of them, so we’re trying to get people used to the technology.”
Dossett described the robotic dog as semi-autonomous. He also noted that the technology incorporates artificial intelligence.

- Global sovereign debt now higher than post WWII; IMF says situation is 'worrisome'

- The world's fiscal house is not in order. Global sovereign debt reached $365 trillion in the first half of the year, according to a new report by the Institute of International Finance, more than three times the size of global GDP.
According to the International Monetary Fund, global debt was on track to reach World War II-era levels by 2028 before the Iran war. That record was broken early.
"The conflict is adding to fiscal pressures by causing a spike in energy prices, tightening financial conditions, and slowing growth, and it is unclear how long these pressures will endure," the IMF said in its annual report out this week, which described the world's fiscal picture as "highly worrisome."

“My dad didn't say anything about [pecans], but I learned on my own,” Hatley said. “That's how come they call me the Pecan Lady. I didn't know it was going to be spread that wide.”

- President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping are set to meet at the White House Thursday, Sept. 24, with trade, Taiwan, Iran and artificial intelligence among the major issues expected to shape their talks.
The meeting comes as the U.S.-China relationship remains strained over tariffs, technology restrictions and security issues, while the war with Iran has added another geopolitical complication.
The U.S. Treasury Department said in April that China purchases approximately 90% of Iran's oil exports, with independent Chinese refineries accounting for most of those imports. (TNND)
Here is what The Fact Check Team found about the biggest issues on the agenda.
