SUMMARY: Voters in Gautier will choose between incumbent Mayor Casey Vaughn and former Mayor Phil Toresen in the upcoming mayoral race. Vaughn aims to continue growth with projects like the town center development, revamped Beo Park, and Legacy Park, a multi-use building with a cardiac center. He emphasizes strengthening infrastructure, public safety, and mixed-use development. Toresen seeks to return, focusing on improving economic development, which he feels Gautier lacks compared to neighboring cities. He highlights past contributions like the amphitheater and public-private partnerships. Both candidates agree the voters will decide the city’s future direction over the next four years.

Gautier voters will choose between two familiar names and faces come Election Day.

SUMMARY: South Mississippi will start the week with scattered showers and thunderstorms, especially Monday and Tuesday, with 1-2 inches of rain possible. Temperatures remain hot and humid, mostly in the upper 80s to low 90s. A cold front will bring more rain chances before a high-pressure ridge builds midweek, lowering rain chances by Wednesday through Friday. The Fourth of July looks mostly dry but very hot, with highs possibly in the mid to upper 90s and heat indices above 100. A low-pressure area near the Gulf or East Coast could develop into a tropical system by next weekend, bringing heavy rain, but details remain uncertain.
