The World Cup begins tomorrow, and many will watch the matches. Soccer reminds us of something we must not forget: life is not a race to show off on our own, but a path we learn to walk together. Anyone who does not know how to pass the ball, even if they have talent, has not yet understood the game. Anyone who does not know how to live with and for others has not yet understood life. #ApostolicJourney

82 years ago, Allied troops landed in Normandy. Let us never forget the courage and sacrifice of the men who stormed that beach to confront the scourge of fascism and liberate the European continent.

Showers and thunderstorms return this afternoon through late tonight. Heavy rains, with rainfall rates of 1 to 3 inches per hour at times, will accompany these showers and storms. With saturated soils, this could lead to isolated instances of flash flooding.

When we first started our band, the way we learned to sing harmonies together was singing old gospel songs. Here’s “Just A Little Talk With Jesus” as we heard it done by Bill Monroe and The Blue Grass Boys.

Long after I’m gone… remember, people — you can’t get in a fight with a robot ump.

(April 28, 2026 | 4:30 p.m. CT): Storm shelters are beginning to open in West Tennessee.
These shelters are opened and managed by local communities, and available locations can be found on TEMA’s interactive map. Shelters typically open when a tornado watch is issued. This map will continue to be updated.
