SUMMARY: The weather forecast for today is a beautiful start to the day, but clouds will increase and there will be a chance of rain later on. Temperatures are comfortable, ranging from the 60s to 80s. Winds will increase from the east Southeast, reaching speeds of 10 to 20 mph in the afternoon. A cold front will move towards the area, causing gusty winds. Next week, cooler temperatures are expected with possible overnight lows in the mid-40s. There will be multiple chances of rainfall over the next seven days. Hurricane Tammy has weakened and is now Post-Tropical Tammy.

Thursday October 26th, 2023: This persistent pattern looks to stay around through the short-
term period as upper-level ridging meanders over the northern
Gulf. Surface winds have remained elevated as the deepening low
pressure over the central US tightens the pressure gradient
between it and the surface high over the southeast US. This has
mostly kept our fog development at bay as the high winds help to
mix out the boundary layer enough. Although, where winds remain
light, can`t rule out some patches of fog here or there, not
nearly as dense and widespread as the beginning of the week.
Mentionable PoPs have been added through the river parishes as
CAMs continue to depict shower development in that area where
low-level convergence in the wind field maxes out. The profile
suggests that these showers will be no more than just showers as
we remain too warm aloft from the ridge to promote more robust
storm development.

As the trough over the southern plains ejects off to the
northeast, it will take the surface low with it and that will help
to relax the pressure gradient, which will in turn lower winds
back down. Although winds will be lighter, they will still remain
elevated enough to keep fog development minimal Friday morning.
The ridge will still be in place over us, so expect much of the
same conditions as today, except winds slightly less than
Thursday.

SUMMARY: The Mississippi Department of Education is hosting a series of statewide literacy meetings this month to improve reading skills and family engagement. One meeting took place at Reeves Elementary in Long Beach, aiming to review Mississippi’s Literacy-Based Promotion Act, a 2013 state law promoting comprehensive reading instruction for children. The department and Long Beach School District emphasize the importance of involving families in this process, as a solid literacy foundation benefits children’s lifelong learning and fluency. These meetings provide an opportunity to equip parents with effective tools to support their children’s literacy development and overall success in education and life.

SUMMARY: Harrison County leaders have finalized and approved the 2025-2026 fiscal budget with no tax increase, balancing expenditures at around $324 million. The Board of Supervisors completed budget talks and passed the budget before the October 1st deadline. Board President Nathan Barrett confirmed there will be no increases in the county’s tax levies. However, the Harrison County School District will implement a small, state-required increase in their school tax, which is a formality and expected to have minimal impact on taxpayers. Overall, the county’s budget remains stable without additional fiscal burdens on residents.
