All right, first response weather fans, we’re tracking several storms across Arkansas, Mississippi, the edge of Alabama, even all the way back to the edge of Oklahoma at this time. The first storm currently has a very significant hail core, and that is the severe warned storm near Tupelo, Mississippi. This storm is moving east southeast at about 20 miles per hour. This is the northeast line of a set of storms that stretches down near Starkville, Yazoo city, Greenville, and then back up into Arkansas near Arkansas Post. Then there are some storms just starting to form up over the Boston mountains, north of Maine, back over into the edge of Oklahoma, with one small storm cell at the north end of the Boston mountains, just southeast of Fayetteville. These storms are all moving south, southeast, at about 20 mph.
