More than 25 million people will be at risk of strong tornadoes that could stay on the ground for long distances, as well as flooding rains and hail the size of tennis balls.
JACKSON, Miss. — Forecasters warned of the potential for strong tornadoes that could stay on the ground for long distances in parts of the South on Tuesday, as well as flooding rains and hail the size of tennis balls.
Multiple tornado warnings were issued in the afternoon in Louisiana and Mississippi based on radar indications that storms were capable of producing a tornado. There were no reports of any damage or injuries. “Supercells are expected to develop this afternoon and track northeastward across much of northeast Louisiana and central Mississippi,” the Weather Service said. “Parameters appear favorable for strong and long-tracked tornadoes this afternoon and early evening.”
“Multiple rounds of severe thunderstorms — some capable of long-tracked tornadoes with EF3+ damage potential — will be possible this afternoon into tonight over parts of the lower Mississippi Valley region and Mid-South,” the Norman, Oklahoma-based Storm Prediction Center said.
