Mississippi State Hires Jeff Lebby
SUMMARY: Oklahoma offensive coordinator Jeff Levy has signed a five-year deal to become the next head coach of Mississippi State football. Levy’s success in leading Oklahoma’s offense to be a top six team in scoring, passing, and total offense has earned him this new role. This will be Levy’s first head coaching job in the SEC, and he expressed excitement about the opportunity to build relationships with players, engage in the community, and recruit for the program. Mississippi State had a 5-7 record in the 2023 season, and Levy is eager to work with the team and continue the tradition of the Bulldogs football program.

SUMMARY: Today’s First Alert Weather Kid is Kayliana, who submitted a creative drawing featured during the forecast segment. Her picture depicted the sun shining brightly, but with a lot of clouds in the sky, partially blocking the sunshine. The image cleverly captured the essence of a partly cloudy day, emphasizing how the clouds bring down the sunlight. In other news, the Clarke County Sheriff’s Department will be installing new cameras to enhance law enforcement capabilities. More details about this development are expected to be shared soon as part of ongoing updates to improve public safety and surveillance infrastructure.

SUMMARY: The West Point Green Wave football team, aiming for its 14th state title, has appeared in the championship game for ten consecutive seasons. Their sustained success is rooted in faith, with head coach Brett Morgan emphasizing a strong spiritual foundation through FCA and reliance on God. Senior leadership also plays a key role, as each class sets the tone for younger players. The team prepares by facing top-tier opponents like Tupelo, Starkville, and Lewisville early in the season. With a “fours up” mentality, the Green Wave focus on fourth-quarter resilience, pushing themselves to give everything until the final whistle.

SUMMARY: Asian needle ants, an invasive species from East Asia, have been spotted in at least 17 states, including Mississippi and Texas. These ants deliver a painful sting that can pierce clothing and inject venom causing severe allergic reactions like anaphylaxis, which may lead to swelling, breathing difficulties, and rapid heartbeat. At least three people in Georgia required hospitalization after stings last year. Unlike the non-dangerous Joro spider recently spreading through the Southeast, the Asian needle ant poses a serious health risk. Experts warn residents to remain vigilant to prevent these ants from nesting and spreading further across the U.S.
The Asian needle ant has been spotted in several U.S. states, including Mississippi.
