SUMMARY: Michael Pendelton, a Pearl man, has been sentenced to 32 years in prison after pleading guilty to selling fentanyl.

WCBI/MSU Storm Chase Day 4 Recap – Home – WCBI TV
SUMMARY: A storm chase group traveled from Oklahoma City to Big Lake, TX and Midland/Odessa, encountering severe storms with potential baseball-sized hail. The storms lacked low-level shear but had decent mid & upper level shear that allowed for organization. They witnessed hailstones up to 3″ in size and experienced a separate severe storm on the way back to the hotel in Odessa, which produced an impressive mammatus cloud field. They captured a cool shot of departing storms and immediate clearing caused by a miniature area of low pressure. The group documented their experiences and shared images on social media.
