Well-Defined Rotation Heading Towards Vicksburg, Mississippi

Scott Martin | April 13, 2019 @ 4:16 pm

A very well-defined rotational couplet is showing on Jackson radar on a cell just to the west of Newellton, Mississippi that is heading to the northeast straight towards Mound and Vicksburg. Roughly a 125 MPH gate-to-gate shear is showing on the velocity at the moment. If you know anyone in the path of this storm, tell them that there is a possible tornado heading in their direction and they need to take cover immediately.

Tornado Warning for this cell goes until 5:00 pm.
