| Episode Narrative | Warm, moist air was in place across central Mississippi during the afternoon and evening of November 26th. As a strong cold front neared the region, supercell thunderstorms developed ahead of the front. These storms tapped into plenty of wind shear in place across the region and this resulted in some wind damage. |
| Event Narrative | This tornado started just east of Johns on the north side of Johns-Mayton Rd where several large tree limbs were snapped. The tornado tracked northeast and reached peak intensity of EF1 with 95 mph winds as it crossed Hwy 43. Here, several hardwood and softwood trees were uprooted with numerous large limbs snapped. The tornado continued northeast through a wooded area before crossing Woodrow Martin Rd where a few large limbs were also snapped. The tornado crossed into Smith County causing minor tree damage, crossing SCR-142 and Hwy 13 before ending at SCR-131 and SCR 135. Maximum winds were 95 mph in Rankin County, total path length was 7.26 miles. Maximum width was 75 yards in Rankin County. |
