It’s looking like this weekend is going to be the hottest one so far this summer. The live entertainment list is also hot, thanks to our community partners at Tony Langford Roofing and Whiskey River Country Club, here is what to expect in Texarkana the weekend of August 14 & 15.
The temperatures this weekend are no joke. It will be dangerously hot. TAKE PRECAUTIONS.
