SUMMARY: The Tio Le Humane Society is facing severe overcrowding, caring for approximately 400 dogs and cats. Executive Director Dena Stanford is urging the community to help by fostering animals, even if just for a weekend. The shelter is developing 10 new runs, but the immediate need for space is critical. By fostering, community members can help the shelter accommodate more animals and prepare for future emergencies. Those interested in fostering can visit the Tio Le Humane Society for more information.

SUMMARY: Happy Friday! The tropics are very active with Hurricane Isaac and Tropical Storm Joy in the Atlantic, both staying offshore and not affecting land, mainly impacting shipping routes. Other systems are being monitored for potential development, particularly in the Caribbean. Meanwhile, remnants of former Hurricane Helen are transitioning to an extratropical cyclone, bringing rain and cooler temperatures to parts of the Central U.S. Local areas may experience light sprinkles and gusty winds, but overall, the weekend looks pleasant with cooler temperatures and sunshine, although a light shower is possible Saturday morning. Temperatures might warm up next week.

SUMMARY: The state of Mississippi has reclaimed properties from owners who fell behind on tax payments. Many lots are too small for new constructions, but the city suggests purchasing adjoining lots to expand land. Currently, the city is managing 550 abandoned state-owned properties but lacks the resources for comprehensive maintenance. Recently, they have hired contractors for some upkeep, including mowing. However, with so many properties, complete maintenance is unfeasible. Interested individuals can visit the Lauderdale County website’s tax assessor page to view available state-owned properties for sale.
