A tornado touches down in Tulsa, Okla., on Wednesday, March 30, 2016.
"The cluster of storms this morning have weakened," said Weather Channel Meteorologist Michael Palmer. "But as we head through the day, it will increase to severe by this afternoon."
NBC affiliate WTVA in Tupelo, Mississippi reported a tornado ripped its way through Lowndes County Thursday afternoon. The twister snapped trees to pieces and downed power lines along Highway 69.
About 5,000 customers were without power Friday morning in Mississippi, according to energy companies.
Don Smith and his family were caught in the middle of the twister. "We were just out in the shop messing with our cars, and all of a sudden, my wife called and said you need to come in, the siren is going off," Smith told WTVA.
"When we come running out of the shop, there was some tin come flying off the top of the shop there. It was like nothing I've ever seen or been in.
Calvin comments:
El Nino is the continual blasting of the blazing sun. It dries up the entire earth surface causing drought, bleak harvest and food shortages every where.
And La Nina is even worst than El Nino in its swift, sweeping destructive path of tornados, hurricanes & typhoons wiping off all the maize in Africa, the coconut trees of Phillipines & Soy plants from USA to China. There will be a great food shortage especially oil seeds - thus pushing up Palm Oil prices!
If you are still holding export stocks - better sell and switch to Palm Oil Stocks as fast as you can on monday!
