Power went out at 1:09 am. Lying here in bed listening to tree after tree snap.
‘94 here we come.

Oh man I feel for you guys. Lots of rain here in east central MS with temperatures around 50. Temperatures to drop as the day goes on but nothing to complain about as compared to northern MS on up.
Thunder and moderate rain in Madison. Just above freezing, temps should start dropping in another hour or so. TAF for area airports calling for freezing rain until 11 or so this morning. I knew Sunday would decide how central MS panned out….we will see.
Praying for you fellas in N. MS, I remember the ‘94 storm in Tupelo well for someone that was little.

30 degrees with heavy sleet and rain mix in Madison right now so it got here a little earlier thn expected.....hope it will leave earlier
And looking at the radar, there’s no end in sight. I keep thinking we may get a break and it may stop raining for a bit, but it’s been almost nonstop all night long.
South Central Texas-we had about half inch of ice and an inch of sleet. I feel sorry for anybody east of here.
Power went off at 3:30 in north Lee county. Just put kerosene in the heater, got propane heater ready, filled bathtub and buckets for non potable water and can’t wait for sunrise. My inside Labrador keeps scratching the back door to go check outside since trees fall every 10 minutes
6 am.. cannot tell you how many trees have hit the ground. Shaking the house when they land. I keep thinking.. that’s got to be the last one standing.. but 30 seconds later another one goes.
Huge lightning flashes and claps of thunder around 4:30… and as I type the rain is still beating down.

The east to west difference is amazing. It's 48 in north central Alabama with heavy rain just past 7 a.m. Supposed to turn colder later on but the precipitation should be gone by then.
28 in Natchez and 70 in Meridian is just bonkers to look at
It’s actually 56 right now in Meridian but will be 42 by noon and 24 by midnight. Bonkers yes.
A "shelter in place" has been issued for Oxford. Comments on face book say it's like a war zone and power crews have been recalled until it's safer.
Looks like the center of the large low pressure is near the Mississippi/Alabama line not far from Starkville. Still warm here but my barometer is plunging as the low moves to the NE. it's 20 degrees colder in Tupelo than it is in Huntsville at the moment, 30 degrees colder in Memphis.
Man I feel for you guys. That’s giving me flashbacks to 94. We lived at the foot of the bluff at the time and that morning I woke up to nothing but the sound of huge trees crashing to the ground on the bluff above us.
Best I can tell, the forecasters totally nailed this storm, even predicting the "warm nose" that temporarily came up into north central Alabama and southern middle Tennessee to avoid the worst of the storm. They tracked the ice up through Mississippi and points northeast almost perfectly.
And the predictions were pinned down two or three days out, and the fact that the storm would even occur at all at least a week out.
