Twin States Weather Blog

Detailed Severe Weather Forecast:

* An active severe weather day setting for tomorrow across the Twin States as a powerful storm system now over Texas makes its way east toward our area.

* Here is the rundown... The main severe weather complex is sitting over the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex in Texas. However, there are isolated severe storms popping over Northern Louisiana and Southern Arkansas. I think we are going to see isolated severe storms during the morning hours here in East Mississippi and West Alabama with the main event coming in the form of a strong squall line in the early and mid-afternoon hours.

* A moderate risk of severe weather is in place from Hattiesburg to Meridian to Demoplolis and for the areas south of that line. Areas north of US 80 are under a slight risk for severe weather.

* I should mention there is the threat of locally heavy rain with this system that could cause some flooding in spots. I know we are still in our drought but if we see constant heavy rain over the same areas, some flooding can be possible.

* We'll have more on Newscenter 11 at 6:00 and 10:00. Rob Hart and I will continue to update the blog throughout the night and tomorrow. We'll have team coverage during the day tomorrow.
