SUMMARY: Temperatures today are significantly colder compared to yesterday, dropping by 10 to 20 degrees across various locations, with readings in the 30s.

A cold front is approaching, bringing reinforcing colder air just in time for the weekend, with expected lows in the upper 20s, causing significant freezes. Saturday’s highs may only reach around 50 degrees. Wind gusts over 20 mph may make it feel even colder. As the week progresses, temperatures will rise, potentially reaching the 60s by Christmas Day, although some rain is anticipated later on that day.

SUMMARY: The Stewpot Opportunity Center in Jackson is responding to dangerously cold temperatures by extending its hours to 22 per day and providing shelter for up to 30 people. The center ensures guests receive food, clothing, hygiene items, hot meals, showers, and rest, with activities like movies to help them stay comfortable. Director Javonda Stanton emphasizes that it is inhumane for people to be left outside in the cold, which can lead to conditions like hypothermia and frostbite. The city is also reopening a temporary shelter at Champion Gym in partnership with Shower Power for those in need.
