Mississippi Skies: Two rounds of severe potential today

Published 1:30 am Thursday, April 27, 2023

Some of us are waking up to the potential for severe storms today. A Level 1 risk covers most of the state this morning with a Level 2 in the southern Pine Belt and northern Gulf Coast regions. This risk includes severe storms, hail, wind, and a couple tornadoes. This morning’s risk will end about 11 a.m. but another round begins about 3 p.m.

In the second round, just about the entire state is under a Level 1 risk. During this round, isolated severe storms, hail, wind, and a tornado or two are possible.
