Officials at odds over proposed Petal annexation
For the city of Petal, words are powerful - especially when they are contained in a section of a local and private law that could make or break the city's plans to annex land along the Evelyn Gandy Parkway.
More than 2,000 Jones County residents, mostly located in Ellisville, were without power early Tuesday morning due to outages at three Dixie Electric substations.
The frigid weather is expected to get even colder and nastier tonight and Thursday.
