Update

* The storms are still continuing to move eastward. The southern end of the line is beginning to slow down a bit, but should begin to accelerate in our direction in the next hour or two.

* Watching closely cells trying to develop across southern Mississippi and Louisiana. The SPC has issued a Mesoscale Discussion for this area, roughly along and south of a line from Meridian to McComb. They mention they will likely issue a tornado watch. This would put all of our Mississippi counties under a tornado watch.

* We're still waiting on the cells over western Mississippi to form into a line. Right now, they aren't showing any signs of becoming linear just yet. The new development across southern Mississippi is particularly concerning, as it will likely be supercellular in nature, and more likely to produce tornadoes.

* We'll be watching it closely...Will update again soon.
