At least 10 tornadoes were confirmed to have hit Mississippi, Alabama and Tennessee, according to several National Weather Service offices.
President Joe Biden approved a disaster declaration for counties in Mississippi early Sunday morning, ordering federal aid to help recovery efforts in the areas affected by the severe storms, straight-line winds and tornadoes that made their way across the state.
"Large hail to very large hail should be the main threat with any supercells," the Storm Prediction Center said. "Damaging winds and a few tornadoes also appear possible." When the sun came up Saturday, drone footage showed homes completely leveled and reduced to piles of wood, vehicles tossed around and trees splintered.
"We have been finding several casualties," said Sharkey County supervisor Jessie Mason. "It's just an ongoing process and it's gonna be a long road ahead." In Carroll County, three people died in one home, coroner Mark Stiles told CNN, adding it appears they were killed in a tornado.
