Jackson water main break affects Woodrow Wilson businesses
SUMMARY: A water main break on Woodrow Wilson Avenue in Jackson, Mississippi caused issues for drivers and businesses on July 4th. The Rally's restaurant on Woodrow Wilson had their water shut off after it started turning brown the night before. As a result, they were only able to sell shakes, burgers, and fries as they did not have access to water for drinks or slushies. The water leak was repaired by Tuesday afternoon, according to Jackson leaders. Despite the lack of water, Rally's did not receive any customer complaints during this time.

The company plans to remain open with a smaller footprint. Thai Union Group, a co-owner, intends to exit its investment. Red Lobster's estimated liabilities range from $1 billion to $10 billion. CEO Jonathan Tibus emphasized that restructuring will address financial challenges and focus on growth. The company will also implement fewer limited-time offers to stabilize finances.

Throughout the chase, the storm cycled multiple times, producing various wall clouds and funnels. Near Hydro, Oklahoma, a funnel descended low from a rotating wall cloud, though no tornado was directly observed due to possible rain-wrapping.
