SUMMARY: The Weather Authority provides an update at 10 p.m. on Monday, noting beautiful weather with increasing sunshine over the next few days. However, this will lead to colder temperatures overnight, dropping into the lower 40s. The air across the Mississippi Gulf Coast has become drier, making it less suitable for rain or thunderstorms. High pressure will bring clear and sunny days for Wednesday before transitioning back to a possible stormy period on Friday and Saturday. The weather is expected to remain stable throughout the evening, and temperatures are dropping quickly due to sparse cloud cover.

Monday November 4th, 2023: A weak frontal boundary continues to swing through the region this afternoon. Behind it, a bit better Cold Air Advection, compared to the previous front. That will lead to cooler conditions tonight and Tuesday. This Frontal Passage will be dry due to lack of meaningful moisture return and overall poor lift. Although cloud cover is stuck around across the region this afternoon…this is pretty much the only impact with the front and parent trough.

SUMMARY: Long Beach leaders have approved an agreement to develop a casino on the former Kmart property, a deal nearly ten years in the making. The Long Beach Board of Aldermen unanimously granted a 40-year lease to Long Beach Harbor Resorts, owned by Jim Parish, who also runs a restaurant at the harbor. Construction must begin within three years and the casino must open within five. Mayor George Bass emphasizes this might be the city’s only chance for a casino, which he believes could boost the local economy and provide funds for the school district, alongside a million dollars for first responder infrastructure.

In the next five years, a casino could be opened in Long Beach.

SUMMARY: Many homeowners in Gulfport, Mississippi, are receiving letters about potential lead or galvanized pipes in their homes. Gulfport Public Works is inspecting the water lines of about 35,000 customers, primarily in homes built before 1985. While no lead lines have been found so far, 900 galvanized lines have been identified, which must also be replaced due to potential lead absorption. The city is responsible for replacing lines from the meter to the main, while homeowners must replace lines from the meter to their house. Inspections are expected to be completed by mid-2025, as part of a nationwide EPA mandate.

Gulfport homeowners are receiving letters from Gulfport Public Works saying their water lines will be inspected. Noah Noble explains what this means.
