SUMMARY: Several Tupelo school kids had an exciting day touring various buildings, including the post office and fire stations. At Fire Station Number Two, Fire Marshall Tyler Scott taught them about 911 calls, fire safety techniques, and what to do in case of a fire. The kids also had the opportunity to walk through a fire truck and learn about the gear firefighters use. The goal of the tours was to make the children more familiar with emergency responders and to learn important safety information. The kids were engaged and excited throughout the day and gained valuable knowledge about fire safety and emergency procedures.

SUMMARY: Happy Friday, Pine Belt! November is here, and I hope you enjoyed Halloween—I certainly did with some candy. Recently, we received half an inch of rain after a three-week dry spell, with lingering showers in areas like Pike County. However, expect mostly cloudy skies with just a few sprinkles, so enjoy Friday Night Lights without worry. The tropics are also changing as hurricane season wraps up, with low pressure expected but unlikely to impact South Mississippi. Remember to prepare for earlier sunsets at 5 PM, but we should stay warm despite the shorter days. Enjoy your weekend!
