The top local stories this morning from KERA News: There's still some impact in Dallas from Sunday's electrical outage at Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson airport.

There are a few delays and cancellations at Dallas Love Field and DFW Airport this morning from Atlanta. More may occur due to a fog advisory in effect this morning.

Other stories this morning:

  • Former Dallas County Sheriff Valdez told WFAA she's holding off on making campaign stops until an interim sheriff is appointed, which will likely be at tomorrow's County Commissioner's meeting. Valdez resigned to run for the Democratic nomination in the state governor’s race.
  • It may be cold and flu season, but also watch out for pneumonia, which can be easily mistaken for other medical problems. 
  • Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott will return to work today after serving his six-game suspension.
