SUMMARY: Thanksgiving travel is peaking as airports prepare for over 18 million screenings this week. Tupelo Regional Airport, known for its ease and short security lines, is bustling but far less crowded than major hubs like Atlanta and DFW. With new service to Dallas Fort Worth in addition to Nashville, passengers are utilizing the airport to avoid large crowds. The TSA predicts this will be the busiest Thanksgiving for air travel, but potential delays loom due to an airport strike in Charlotte and an ongoing shortage of air traffic controllers. Local travel businesses are thriving.

The Thanksgiving travel crush is underway all over the country, including Tupelo.

SUMMARY: Last Saturday marked the first truly cold morning after a warm stretch, and the water in the ponds responded with steam rising into the cold air, illustrating the physics of water in its different states. The interaction between liquid water, vapor, and sunlight created a captivating visual display. The return of geese added to the day’s charm, as they migrate away during hot weather. The rising steam allowed for unique perspectives, emphasizing shapes and relations within the scene. These extraordinary moments remind us to appreciate nature’s beauty, as such displays won’t last once the pond water cools further.
