Mississippi Skies: Severe threat added for today

Published 1:30 am Monday, April 3, 2023

Another day, another severe threat. After a last-minute upgrade and expansion last night, we now have another risk area today.

Today’s Level 1 threat covers parts of eastern and northern regions with the border stretching from Greenwood to Philadelphia to Meridian. Isolated severe storms, hail, damaging winds, and torrential rains are possible, along with a tornado or two.

Tuesday’s storms continue to show the potential for a higher risk and larger area for severe weather. There are rain chances just about every day for the next severe days, so we’ll be watching for any potential severe risk upgrades.
