The Weatherford Five — Show Notes Episode: Friday, March 13, 2026

In today's episode: Weatherford City Council greenlights the design phase for Fire Station 5 on the north side of town, a $170K contract with Grossman Design and Build that could lead to an $8.3–8.5 million construction project. Willow Park Mayor Teresa Palmer ejects a public speaker for the second consecutive council meeting. The week's weather outlook brings a warm weekend topping out near 82–83°F before a sharp Monday cool-down to 49°F with possible snow. The Rooted in Weatherford Collective Market is this Saturday, March 14, starting at 9 AM in the Downtown Historic District — free to attend. Weatherford ISD names Dr. Sean Scott of Mansfield ISD as the lone finalist for superintendent, pending a state-required 21-day waiting period before a formal board vote in early April. And local five-year-old Hayes Worthington earned a city proclamation after scoring a 97 at the Fort Worth Stock Show and Rodeo's Mutton Bustin' competition — March 10th is now officially Hayes Worthington Day in Weatherford.
