AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

SNAP + Water Bills: Mississippi Public Service Commissioner De’Keither Stamps unveiled “SNAP H₂O,” a proposal that would let eligible families use existing SNAP/EBT benefits toward qualifying residential water and wastewater charges—no new funding, but a new option aimed at reducing shutoffs and reconnection costs. Tropical Watch: Forecasters are tracking a Gulf low near the mouth of the Mississippi River with a 50% chance of development; impacts could mean more rain and higher storm risk even if it stays weak. Weather/Heat: A heat dome is expected to push highs 10–15 degrees above normal into Labor Day, with temperatures near 100 in parts of the region. Local Sports: Mississippi Christian and Saint Leo played to a 1-1 men’s soccer draw, while the Mississippi Mud Monsters host their final home homestand at Trustmark Park. Public Safety: A deadly shooting outside a Memphis restaurant left one dead and three injured; police say it began as a fight in a parking lot. Gas Prices: Clay County’s lowest premium gas hit $4.24 in the week ending Aug. 22, according to GasBuddy.
