Strong Storms To The South! 44 Tornadoes & Counting!!

I just checked the latest Bufket weather models and they are telling me that our lifted index has become even more stable then before. They currently stand at +2.7 which is pretty good! Because we had so much cloud cover today we stayed pretty stable. Thank you clouds! :)

Now we are not done yet. We do still have more heavy rain at times on the way through out tonight into tomorrow. Take a look at this radar image taken at 6:58pm EST below.
You can see whats going through right now and then whats still to come. Currently it is looking like we will have a slight break in the rain before the next batch pushes through tonight into tomorrow. Now right now I'm not looking for anything severe with this next batch in our area. Now areas to our south has really had some strong weather to deal with this evening. I have already seen 44 tornadoes reported with this severe weather outbreak today. And some of them worse then others! Take a look at this below...

1 W DURANT, HOLMES, MS.

*** 1 INJ *** MULITPLE CARS BLOWN OFF INTERSTATE 55. UNKNOWN NUMBER OF INJURIES. REPORT RELAYED VIA ATTALA COUNTY EMA.

EBENEZER, HOLMES, MS.

*** 1 FATAL *** NUMEROUS HOMES SUSTAINED STRUCTURAL DAMAGE. WIDESPREAD TREE DAMAGE. UPDATE...MEMA CONFIRMING 1 FATALITY IN HOLMES COUNTY. (JAN)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

2 N FRENCH CAMP, CHOCTAW, MS.

*** 3 FATAL *** EMERGENCY MANAGER REPORTS EXTENSIVE DAMAGE IN THE COUNTY. UPDATE...MEMA CONFIRMS 3 FATALITIES IN CHOCTAW COUNTY.

Be sure to pray for these people!! God bless!! We are lucky on this system. But still more rain / thundershowers on the way.....
