How gas prices have changed in Mississippi in the last week
SUMMARY: Gas prices are slowly rising due to higher oil prices, with midwestern and Gulf Coast states still seeing prices below $3 per gallon. Analysts warn that this trend may not last, with pump prices typically peaking around July. AAA spokesperson Andrew Gross also stated that a significant rise in gas prices could jeopardize President Biden’s chances of reelection in the fall. In Mississippi, the current gas price is $2.77, with Hattiesburg having the highest gas prices in the state. Hawaii, California, and Washington have the most expensive gas, while Wyoming, Oklahoma, and Wisconsin have the least expensive. Diesel prices in Mississippi are currently $3.61.

SUMMARY: A federal judge has granted a motion to delay the trial for Jackson Mayor Chokwe A. Lumumba and two other local leaders implicated in a bribery scandal. The decision was made due to the case’s complexity, with significant evidence needing review. Lumumba, Hinds County District Attorney Jody Owens, and City Councilman Aaron Banks face charges related to conspiracy, wire fraud, and money laundering linked to an alleged bribery scheme involving over $80,000 in payments from fictitious developers. The trio has pleaded not guilty. This scandal adds to ongoing issues in Jackson regarding water and policing disputes.

SUMMARY: As Thanksgiving approaches, U.S. air travel is expected to hit record levels, with nearly 80 million Americans traveling, predominantly by car. The TSA anticipates screening 18.3 million passengers during the holiday week, with Sunday likely breaking a record for airport traffic. Despite ongoing air traffic controller shortages, TSA staffing is high enough to maintain manageable security wait times. Weather remains a wildcard, with rain and snow predicted in several regions. Travelers are advised to arrive early to airports and avoid lithium-ion batteries in checked luggage. Traffic congestion is expected on Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons, easing by Thanksgiving Day.
