SUMMARY: A program called Peanut’s Place has been established in Tupelo for adults with special needs. Charlotte Warfield was inspired to create the program by thinking about her daughter’s future. The goal is to provide a place for adults with special needs to go while their caregivers are at work. The program started with assistance from the Create Foundation and is looking for volunteers and donations. The members of Peanut’s Place have been enjoying crafts, field trips, and Bible lessons. They hope to eventually provide care Monday through Friday from 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. More information on how to get involved can be found on the WTVA website.

Adults with special needs are underserved in a lot of areas. But, a local mom is working to change that with the start of Peanut’s Place.

SUMMARY: Christian artist TobyMac reflected on his evolving music style ahead of his performance at the Brandon Amphitheater. Rooted in hip hop, R\&B, and soul, he says his sound has mellowed over time, shaped by life’s ups and downs. Though he sometimes tires of older songs like “Speak Life,” their enduring message keeps them meaningful. He continues to blend new hits like “Cornerstone” and “I Just Need You” into his setlist, skipping “Good Morning” out of respect for collaborator Mandisa. TobyMac promises fans a joyful, diverse, and unified show experience, filled with both nostalgic favorites and fresh, relevant music.

SUMMARY: Scattered afternoon storms may disrupt outdoor plans today, with highs in the upper 80s to low 90s and heat index values in the mid-90s. Overnight temperatures will dip to the 70s. More storms are possible tomorrow, especially in the Delta during the morning, with widespread storms expected by afternoon. A high-pressure system near Baja California will shift northward this week, reducing rain chances but increasing heat and humidity.

Stay weather-aware and hydrated.
