Pleasanton Power Outages Caused by Weather
Events
A thunderstorm produced wind gusts estimated at 60 mph that knocked down large tree limbs in Pleasanton. The downed tree limbs also knocked out power in the area.
Light freezing rain and drizzle began near midnight on January 15 over the northern portion of Atascosa County. The accumulation of ice forced the closing of roads and bridges north of SH97 and SH73. The ice also caused power outages to hundreds of residents in the northern third of the county. Schools and offices were closed in Lytle, Poteet and Leming on January 16.
The high winds from former Hurricane Claudette, now Tropical Storm Claudette, struck in the evening of July 15 and continued through most of the night - mainly over the southern part of the county. Winds were unofficially estimated at between 60 and 70 mph with gusts near 80 mph. About 100 homes lost power for a period of several hours to two days. 5 to 6 trailers were blown over by the high winds along mile markers 81 and 91 of I-37 in southern Atascosa County. Minor damage was reported to 6 homes, most of it to the roofs. The greatest tragedy of the Hurricane occurred near 7 pm in the evening when a 13 year-old boy from Jourdanton was leaving his front yard to get in a vehicle. Just before he entered the vehicle, a large tree was blown over by the high winds and landed on top of him. In spite of rapid response by neighbors and EMS, the youth died.
