Mississippi Skies: Tornado surveys begin as rain moves out
Published 1:30 am Thursday, February 9, 2023
Several reports of tornadoes and severe thunderstorm warnings kept Mississippians on edge last night. Today will be much calmer.
Clouds will hang around for some of us today but temperatures and humidity levels will be much more comfortable as the front moves out of the state. We’re about to enter a stretch of a few days with a roller coaster of temperatures and several shots of rain chances.
