Christmas at Fort Worth Fire Station: A new tradition

Christmas at Fort Worth Fire Station 14 looked a little different this year, with firefighters and their families turning the station into a festive home away from home. Instead of the usual holiday at home, families shared a meal, played games, and made the best of working through the holiday. Even when a call came in, the sense of togetherness didn’t fade. It’s a powerful reminder of the sacrifices first responders make—and how they find ways to celebrate, connect, and keep spirits high, no matter what. How do you honor those who work through the holidays in your community? #Culture #FortWorth #Firefighters

A Christmas miracle at Fort Worth hospital

A newborn girl from Georgia is thriving this Christmas thanks to a bold team at Cook Children’s in Fort Worth. After every other hospital turned them away, her family made the journey to Texas, hoping for a miracle. Against the odds, doctors performed two complex heart surgeries on baby Anna Claire, who was born with a rare heart defect and Turner syndrome. Five months later, she’s home, smiling, and filling her parents’ days with joy they never thought possible. Stories like this remind us how far hope, determination, and medical innovation can go. What moments of unexpected hope have touched your life? #News #ChristmasMiracle #FortWorth

Fort Worth drivers face new digital speed limits

Digital speed-limit signs are now lighting up I‑35W in Fort Worth, changing the way we drive during bad weather, traffic jams, or accidents. These new signs let TxDOT instantly lower speed limits—usually by up to 10 mph—right when conditions get dangerous. It’s a direct response to the tragic 2021 pileup, aiming to make our roads safer and more adaptable. The limits are fully enforceable, so when you see a new number on the sign, that’s the law. How do you feel about these changes? Will they make you feel safer, or just add confusion to your commute? #Transportation #FortWorth #RoadSafety
