SUMMARY: Joey’s Restaurant in the Shoals, a beloved dining staple since 1958, is closing its doors this weekend after decades of service and community connections.

SUMMARY: This Sunday morning in the Tennessee Valley is chilly, with temperatures starting in the upper 50s and reaching the low 60s by 9 AM. Clear skies and sunshine make for a pleasant day, perfect for outdoor activities, including a baseball game with temperatures around 82 degrees later. However, the area is experiencing a moderate to severe drought, particularly in northwest Alabama. A tropical system developing in the Gulf of Mexico presents a 70% chance of affecting the region within a week, potentially bringing much-needed rainfall as early as Thursday, with temperatures expected to drop into the low 80s.
