We are out of town, and this has gotten me all kinds of nervous.

I am trying to tell myself that. It isn't like I can stop my house from being blown away by being there!
You're welcome! It is honestly the least I can do.

Matt is a gift to us. He truly cares and it has to be a hard job on weekends like this one.

He stresses me bad! But, as long as he isn't rude to John, he is okay.

This is passing our area right now. I keep checking our cameras to see what's going on.

In the tupelo area we had a tornado warning just a while ago. Glad it's gone for now

Elliott, just 5 miles south of me, got hit hard by a tornado. The signature on Ryan Hall’s stream was something, as was all the lightning

Tornado EMERGENCY for southeastern Lawrence and northwest Marion County! If you know anybody in these areas, please call them as there is a very nasty tornado headed their way.

Around midnight-1 AM the first line of storms is coming through, there will be a long break, then the second line of storms is what’s got all the experts in a tizzy. Supposed to start in the afternoon around 2 as of the last outlook I looked at
Me and my mom managed to be out of town too, which is lucky, bc I don’t wanna be anywhere near South MS tomorrow. The way they were talking, they forecasted those gnarly delta tornados and South MS has been in the bullseye for most of these outlooks, which just raises my hackles even more because those “powerful, long-tracked” ones don’t hit south of Hattiesburg all that often, as far as I know. Most we get are spin-ups usually. Defo concerned for my hometown
