SUMMARY: As the holidays approach, Pine Belt families are striving to ensure their children experience a normal Christmas, despite challenging living situations. The Domestic Abuse Family Shelter in Laurel, which has served 11 counties for 40 years, reports being at capacity, with 30-40 residents, primarily children.

SUMMARY: Warmer weather is expected to continue briefly before a significant cold snap arrives next week. Current temperatures are chilly, with highs in the 30s to 45°F across various locations.
