6/2/25- Election Day weather looks good… just hot
SUMMARY: Election Day weather will be mostly clear but hot, with highs in the low 90s and heat index values possibly reaching the mid-90s. Smoke from Canadian wildfires may cause some haze, though air quality remains mostly good, with moderate levels expected tomorrow. Sensitive individuals should stay cautious. The jet stream’s position keeps temperatures above average and rain chances low, but an upper-level low off Florida may bring spotty showers Wednesday and Thursday. There is a very low chance of a subtropical or tropical system forming near Florida, named Andrea, but it won’t affect the local area. Polls open at 7 a.m. and close at 7 p.m., with weather cooperating for voting.

Interview: Blue Bell brings back cookie cake flavor
SUMMARY: Blue Bell has brought back its cookie cake ice cream, a fan-favorite flavor first introduced in 2019 and absent from stores since 2020. Emanuel Williams, territory operations manager, describes it as sweet cream ice cream with chocolate chip cookie cake pieces and swirls of chocolate and vanilla icing. The flavor was the runner-up in Blue Bell’s Great Scoop Revival Flavor Tournament, narrowly missing the win to Groom’s Cake ice cream, which will also be available for a limited time. Cookie cake ice cream is now available in stores in half-gallon and pint sizes. Despite rising costs, Blue Bell maintains quality while working with grocers to keep prices reasonable. Emanuel’s personal favorite is the discontinued white chocolate almond flavor. He also endorses ice cream as a breakfast treat, calling it the “breakfast of champions.”

WTVA’s Avery Hilliard interviewed Emmanuel Williams with Blue Bell about the company reintroducing its cookie cake ice cream.
