While we don’t know what to expect from season four just yet, the showrunner Tim Minear has previously opened up about having a natural disaster in every season of the show and its predecessor, 911, including a tsunami, cold snap and dust storm.

Chatting about making the show, he told Decider: "The process is always the same, which is 'What the hell are we going to do next?!' It’s funny because when we were going through Season 2 of Lone Star, we kept coming up with these big ideas: 'There’s going to be a serial arsonist, and then Charles is going to die,' and everything started to feel like a season finale. 

Will you be watching season four?

"So by the time we got to the actual season finale, we were like, 'What are we going to do?' Somebody had pitched the haboob, the dust storm. And [Executive Producer] Rashad [Raisani] and some of the other writers had been talking about the cold snap that happened in Austin in 2021. 

"We talked about doing that, and at first I hesitated. A tsunami is one thing, right? You create the spectacle, you build some streets in a tank in Mexico and you have the big event and then you have the fighting against the receding water and it’s very visual. But cold is cold."
