The county almanac · Tuesday, November 3, 2026

Everything Polk County. One place.

The weather, the lake, the ballot, the meetings and what's being built in Polk County, Texas. Every number links to its source.

Live from the National Weather Service, USGS gauge 08066190, and Polk County Emergency Management. Burn ban status is as reported to the Texas A&M Forest Service; the Polk County Commissioners Court is the authority. Road conditions are as reported to TxDOT and cover state highways only — not county roads or city streets. PolkTX is not an alerting authority — always confirm with the source.
Situation Room Weather, the lake, TxDOT conditions, the three traffic cameras, scanner status and the meeting record — on one screen.
