Meteorologist Trey Tonnessen: “Pushing Buttons” Morning Forecast
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.

WLOX Digital Desk with Hugh Keeton (05/08/2024)
SUMMARY: This content discusses the benefits of meditation for reducing stress and anxiety. Meditation can help regulate emotions, improve concentration, and enhance overall well-being. It activates the body's relaxation response, reducing the production of stress hormones and lowering blood pressure. Regular meditation practice can rewire the brain to be more resilient to stress and increase cognitive function. Mindfulness meditation, in particular, encourages staying present and focusing on the moment, which can prevent rumination and negative thought patterns. Overall, meditation is a powerful tool for promoting mental health and emotional balance.

Expert Talk with The Window Source of the Gulf Coast, Cye Young
SUMMARY: Today on WXX Expert Talk, host Michelle Eubank welcomes S Young from The Window Source Gulf Coast to discuss the importance of having hurricane-resistant windows on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. S Young explains that homes in the area need to meet a design pressure of around dp50 to withstand 200 mph winds. Many homes still have old aluminum windows that do not meet this standard. The Window Source Gulf Coast offers specials on new windows, including impact glass and hurricane-resistant options like fabric shield or hurricane shutters. Homeowners can contact them for more information or visit their website for financing options.
