Is there an official alert for Lubbock right now?

No active alerts from the National Weather Service for Lubbock County as of Sep 29, 1:53 PM CDT.
That is the Weather Service’s answer at that moment. Conditions and alerts can change quickly, so open the source if you are unsure.

How we handle safety information
- We publish official sources only, with the source, the time it was issued and the time we checked.
- We do not publish police radio traffic, officer locations or unverified reports, and we do not run a crime feed.
- When there is nothing to show, we say so. When we cannot reach a source, we say that instead. We never fill the gap.
- If something here is wrong, tell us and we will fix it in the open.
