An EF0 tornado touched down and moved between Three Rivers and Big
Point, MS causing minor and patchy tree damage along its path. High
snaps, large broken branches and a few small uprooted trees were
noted along Pipeline Road. A tornado debris signature appeared on
KMOB shortly after this and it`s likely the tornado was at its
strongest right after formation. Additional patchy damage to tree
tops was noted on high resolution satellite imagery to the
northeast, but only tree debris and small branches were seen as
the tornado weakened and dissipated near park Ridge Drive.

An EF0 tornado touched down near Highway 614, west of Hurley, MS.
Minor and patchy tree damage was predominantly observed via high
resolution satellite imagery as most of the track was over
inaccessible portions of Black Creek Swamp. The patches of tree
damage were mostly evident right before the deepest tornado debris
signatures were visible on KMOB near the beginning of the track and
again near Gavin Hamilton Road. The tornado evidently weakened as
it occluded northwest and the tornado debris signature dissipates
not long after this point.
