Oktibbeha County Residents,

Please be advised that the entire state of Mississippi is under a severe weather threat beginning this evening, Sunday, March 15. The primary window for this activity is expected between 5:00 PM and 7:00 PM, lasting through the early morning hours of Monday, March 16.

The following conditions are possible:

- Severe storms
- Damaging winds up to 70 mph
- Quarter-sized hail
- Tornadoes

Because damaging winds are the highest risk, please treat all thunderstorm warnings as you would tornado warnings this evening. Straight-line winds can be as destructive as tornadoes; given the saturated ground and weakened trees, downed power poles are anticipated and widespread outages.

Please remain weather-aware, identify a designated safe location, and ensure you have a way to receive emergency alerts that does not depend on home power. Remember to charge your devices now.
