Complex Winter Storm

A large storm system has swept across the center of the country bringing everything from snow to tornadoes.

In fact, much of central Mississippi was under the gun on Tuesday with several reported tornado touch downs as a line of severe storms moved through.

Most of the damage was to trees, but some structures were impacted, including a church.

Now they are under a winter storm watch and could see up to 3 inches of snow by Thursday night!

The Jackson weather office has placed that region under a Winter Storm Watch in case the snow materializes.

Several homes were damaged as a tornado moved through the Alexandria vicinity in Louisiana.

This lastest storm system has brought down a lot of cold air form Alaska and Canada, and that translated into some good snows for many locations.

Check out the latest US Snow Cover map.

As you can see, many states including most all of Canada has snow on the ground.

Speaking of Canada, I got the nicest comment left on the blog from someone up there yesterday. If you are reading today, I just want to say thank you.

  2. Hi Chris

    After reading yesterday's kudos by the Canadian reader, I had to say thanks from Montana for doing the blog. It is the ONLY one that I read daily, and it is both entertaining and informative. I especially enjoyed your blogs on weather fronts and such.
