Thousands were left without electricity and power after a
blustery storm swept through Arkansas and Mississippi on Wednesday October 17th.
Storm trackers are suspecting that at least five tornadoes touched down.
The storm traveled up from the Golf Coast into Mississippi
and then up into Arkansas as well where it gained most of its strength. In Northern Mississippi and Eastern Arkansas was
were winds and tornadoes took out dozens of houses, trailer homes, trees, and
electric towers leaving up to thousands of people in both states powerless.
After the strong winds and tornadoes ripped through
Mississippi and Arkansas, dozens of people evacuated from their trailer homes
in Tennessee. A man outside Memphis, TN stated “It sliced it open like a can,
you can see the sky when you go in my kitchen, it’s pretty rough right now
around here”
