Georgetown community reels from Pulp & Paper Mill closure announcement
SUMMARY: The closure of the Georgetown Pulp and Paper Mill has left residents in shock, particularly those who have relied on it for their livelihoods for decades. The mill, operational since 1937, will shut down by the end of December, laying off over 700 workers. This decision, described by International Paper as a financial one, has raised concerns about the economic impact on the community, especially during the holiday season. Georgetown’s mayor highlighted worries about public health, as the city sources its drinking water from the mill’s canal. Discussions are ongoing about supporting affected workers and the future of the mill site.

SUMMARY: An Arctic front is arriving tonight, dropping temperatures below freezing by 9 PM and leading to severe cold conditions. The Upstate will wake up to upper teens, while the mountains will see lower teens. Hard freeze precautions are essential, as temperatures may remain below freezing for three days, potentially causing water service disruptions. Highs will be in the 30s and lows remain in the teens, possibly single digits in the mountains from Monday to Thursday. A winter storm may develop in the Gulf of Mexico, bringing light snowfall late Tuesday into Wednesday, with higher amounts expected further south.

For TikTok users, mourning, frustration and clinging to hope as TikTok ban looms
SUMMARY: Callie Goodwin, a small business owner from Columbia, S.C., demonstrates support for TikTok outside the Supreme Court amidst a potential ban on the app due to national security concerns.
