Eye-catching, scrap metal cockroach now sunk as fishing reef in Gulf of Mexico
SUMMARY: A giant metal cockroach, previously seen off Highway 90 in Buuy, has been sunk to the Gulf of Mexico to serve as a fishing reef.

I-10 widening project continues to cause traffic headaches
SUMMARY: The I-10 widening project continues to cause issues for drivers, with temporary lanes crumbling. Recently, a pothole formed in the right lane, prompting the Mississippi Highway Patrol to close one lane. The wet weather caused a gash in the road, leading to at least two tire blowouts. Drivers are urged to slow down in construction zones to avoid potholes, as these areas can be difficult to navigate at high speeds. Crews are working to repair the road, but frequent wet conditions may continue to cause further damage. The situation remains under investigation, with efforts underway to prevent future issues.
