Hanshaw Road Bridge repairs complete, expected to reopen after inspection
SUMMARY: Repair work on the Hanshaw Road Bridge in Ocean Springs has been completed ahead of schedule, officials announced. The structural repairs were finished recently, and now the bridge awaits inspection by the Mississippi Department of Transportation (MDOT). MDOT will assess the repairs and provide a load rating for the bridge before reopening it to traffic. The bridge had been closed since March, when state officials ordered the closure until repairs could be made. There is currently no confirmed date for the inspection or reopening, but the completion of repair work marks a positive step toward restoring access.
Now that the repairs are complete, MDOT will inspect the work and assign a load rating to the bridge.

07/23 James' “Weather Kid” Wednesday Forecast
SUMMARY: Welcome back, South Mississippi! It’s Weather Kid Wednesday at WXXV, where local kids help with the forecast. Today’s guest is James, an 11-year-old birthday boy who recently celebrated at Escape Arcade. We’re seeing cloud cover and showers mixed with heat. The high today is 97°F, but with humidity, it feels like 115°F due to the heat index—meaning it feels hotter because sweat doesn’t evaporate well. Tomorrow, temperatures will cool slightly to around 103°F with more rain expected, thanks to a low-pressure system. James advises staying in air conditioning, seeking shade, or visiting a water park to beat the heat.
