Episode Narrative A low pressure system moving east along the Arkansas Louisiana border helped to organize a line of severe thunderstorms early in the morning of April 5th. Widespread severe wind gusts and several tornadoes occurred with this squall line as it moved east across Mississippi. Some hail also occurred with these storms.
Event Narrative An EF-1 tornado started along MS Highway 29 and tracked east-northeast toward the De Soto National Forest. At the start of the tornado track, large limbs were blown down and a couple of trees were uprooted. The tornado widened and peaked in intensity as it crossed Pecan Grove Road. In that area multiple trees were uprooted or snapped, there was some damage to a shed and metal barn, and power lines were blown down. The tornado then crossed Ira Odem Road and Old Highway 15 where additional trees were uprooted. More trees were blown down as the tornado crossed Highway 15 about one half mile south of George Boutwell Road. The tornado dissipated after crossing MS Highway 536 in the De Soto National Forest. The estimated peak wind gust was 90 mph.
