GRAND JUNCTION, Tenn. — The weather is calm across much of the Mid-South this morning after severe storms pushed through the area in two separate waves.
Early Saturday morning, many people were awaken by loud thunder, heavy rains, and some hail across the region. Things began to dry out across much of the Mid-South during the mid-morning hours and early afternoon before turning severe again later in the day.
One of the hardest hit areas is Grand Junction, Tennessee, where multiple trees are down and widespread damage is reported.
“It was like a roaring sound. I was in the bed, I didn’t know which way to go,” Pearlie Morgan, of Grand Junction, said.
Pearlie Morgan and her daughter Sharon both took cover inside their Grand Junction home.
“Things were falling in the house. That was scary, and it was hitting windows,” Sharon Morgan said.
People throughout Grand Junction spent Sunday morning chopping up and moving some of the topple trees. Those same trees caused power outages throughout the Mid-South
As of 10:20 a.m. Sunday, MLGW reported a little less than 2,000 customers are without power. More than 10,000 customers lost power during the height of the storm.
In Arkansas, Entergy is reporting a little more than 1,900 customers are without power across the state. And in Mississippi, roughly 1,400 customers are without power across the state.
Over in Arkansas, the National Weather Service said in Wilson, there was structural damage to trailers and homes and even a shop was destroyed. In nearby Marie, a mobile home was lifted off of the ground and thrown onto its side.
The National Weather Service has not confirmed any tornadoes in Mississippi County or North Arkansas and said survey reports will start rolling out in the coming days.
