Winter Storm Fern Update

An update from Fort Bend County HSEM

🚧Texas Road Conditions Impacted by Winter Storm

This Drive Texas map shows the current, widespread impacts of the winter storm across much of the state, with numerous roadways affected by ice and snow.

⚠️ Conditions are dangerous and continue to worsen.

According to the National Weather Service, Fort Bend County and much of Southeast Texas could begin seeing freezing rain tonight. Because the exact timing remains variable, residents are strongly encouraged to plan to be off the roads by dark.

Dangerous to near-impossible travel conditions are expected as freezing rain and sleet continue to develop across the region.

🚫 Please stay home and avoid travel unless it is absolutely necessary.

Even small amounts of ice can make roads extremely dangerous — especially bridges and overpasses.

Staying off the roads helps protect you and allows emergency crews to respond to those who truly need help.

Happy Friday!

As we all are preparing for the bitter cold this weekend, the City of Weston Lakes has been actively participating in conference calls with State and Local emergency operations. We are sitting in on these calls daily to make sure we have the most up to date information. Right now, it is looking like everyone should be looking to stay home and stay warm, Saturday evening through Monday morning. You still have plenty of time to get everything you need and relax at home on Sunday!

Things the City wants you to know:

The Mayor confirmed with the Weston Lakes Country Club that IF NEEDED, the ballroom will be available as a warming center and charging station for residents.

Our emergency mangement team, along with city staff, has been in contact with AquaTexas and Inframark(MUD 81), and they are both prepared and monitoring the weather closely. There are links below to each of their statements on the upcoming weather.

2025 Fort Bend County Fair is in the books!

Weston Lakes Mayor Bob Wall spent a little time at the Fort Bend County Fair this year! We love having a mayor that is all smiles and shows his community spirit.

If you caught the parade, you probably saw him riding on the Fort Bend Mayor’s float, waving to everyone and kicking off the fun.

Mayor Wall then switched gears from parade VIP to entertainment host:

  • He got behind the mic for Senior Citizen Day and took on the role of bingo caller! We hear he was a hit, making sure everyone had a great time.
  • He also hung out with the younger crowd, handing out ribbons to all the elementary school kids who were crushing it in the opening day games.
  • And a huge shoutout—he made sure to stop by and support the truly amazing Exceptional Rodeo, one of his favorite events at the fair.

It’s awesome to see Mayor Bob Wall jumping right into all the action and celebrating the best of Fort Bend County!
