The top local stories this evening from the KERA Newsroom: A North Texas charter school will open a campus within a Grand Prairie public school. Also, a Plano couple’s bid to overturn Texas’ ban on same-sex marriage reaches a federal appeals court in New Orleans.

Earthquakes may be on the brain, but there's a more familiar natural disaster on the horizon: tornadoes. Finally, the Dallas Symphony Orchestra will honor the late conductor, Eduardo Mata.

You can listen to the segment weekdays at 6:20 p.m. and 8:20 a.m. on 90.1 FM.

Former KERA staffer Krystina Martinez was an assistant producer. She produced local content for Morning Edition and KERANews.org. She also produced The Friday Conversation, a weekly series of conversations with North Texas newsmakers. Krystina was also the backup newscaster for the Texas Standard.
