Friday October 27th, 2023: Patchy dense fog has been noted across the northeast portions of
the area as winds have began to shut down over those areas.
Expected more fog development this morning as the winds continue

struggle to shut the winds off due to the winds coming off of the
water. The upper-level ridge over the northern Gulf will stay
around through the weekend before the next cold front comes in.

Legacy Park multi-use center downgrades design plans due to lack of funding
SUMMARY: The future of the Legacy Park multi-use center in Jackson County is uncertain due to funding issues. Originally planned as a retail, restaurant, and healthcare hub, recent revisions now focus solely on a memorial endoscopy facility.
