There are multiple signature hooks moving across northern Mississippi, fast.

Three of them, right here. Take cover, Mississippi!

Look at them. That middle hook is really wrapping. It'll be a strong one.

Lots of prayers to all.

ETA: The bottom one is looking especially strong on my PYKL3 radar right now. Huge hail core.
