SUMMARY: Meteorologist Aron Colby discusses an impending cold weather system in South Mississippi, with the potential for wintry weather including snow or ice.

Rain with possible thunderstorms is forecasted for Saturday morning, followed by a cold front bringing frigid temperatures by Sunday. The week ahead could see morning lows in the mid to upper 20s.

Meteorologist Aaron Colby has a look at the cold blast and the possibility of a wintry mix in our area.
SUMMARY: Super Bowl weekend kicked off at Hollywood Casino in Bay St. Louis with a pro-am golf tournament featuring 17 professional football players, including Saints legend Ricky Jackson and 12 Hall of Famers. This event sparked a long-standing debate about which team had the better linebacking corps: the Giants’ “Big Blue Wrecking Crew” or the Saints’ “Dome Patrol.” Jackson jokingly noted the Giants’ Super Bowl wins as the differentiator. The tournament also included football icons like Jerome Bettis, Marshall Faulk, Bruce Smith, and Joe Horn. Excitement for Super Bowl weekend permeated both New Orleans and the Mississippi Coast.

Sports Reporter Ansley Brent gives an exclusive look inside the NFL’s Super Bowl Experience in New
SUMMARY: The Super Bowl Experience in New Orleans offers a fun-filled atmosphere for all ages, featuring games, player interactions, and the chance to see the Lombardi Trophy and get autographs. Fans, whether supporting the Chiefs, Eagles, or simply enjoying football, can engage in activities like making their own football plays, taking photos, and participating in various games. One fan shared their excitement about the autograph stage and the ability to take pictures, noting that this was their third Super Bowl event. The experience runs through Saturday, and tickets are available for those interested in attending.
SUMMARY: Mississippi is moving closer to legalizing mobile sports betting after the House passed a supportive bill. Currently, residents can only place bets at casinos, but this legislation could change that, particularly ahead of the Super Bowl, one of the most heavily wagered events globally. While mobile betting won’t be ready in time for this year’s game, there’s significant demand, with nearly 9 million attempts to access mobile sportsbooks noted. If approved, the bill could generate millions in annual revenue for the state, thanks to a proposed 12% tax on mobile bets, benefiting all 82 counties.
