At least 4 dead as severe weather outbreak wreaks havoc across Southeast U.S.

A severe weather outbreak wreaked havoc across the southeastern United States over the weekend, leaving at least four people dead, causing widespread destruction, and cutting power to thousands of homes and businesses on Sunday, December 29, 2024.

At least four people have been reported dead after a severe weather outbreak accompanied by strong winds and tornadoes ravaged the southeastern United States, leaving hundreds of thousands without power on Sunday and grounding some 600 flights.

Several tornadoes, ranging from EF-0 to EF-3, were reported across Mississippi, Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana, and other parts of the Southeast, starting Friday, December 27.

The tornadoes caused widespread damage across the affected regions, blowing off roofs, flipping vehicles, and downing trees and powerlines throughout the Southeast. Several trailer homes were overturned in Mississippi.

On Saturday, December 28, the NWS Storm Prediction Center received 45 tornado reports from the Southeast, with 19 of them occurring in Mississippi.

NWS Weather Prediction Center meteorologist Frank Pereira said that severe weather outbreaks of this magnitude so late in the year are fairly uncommon, but not unheard of.

A deadly EF-2 tornado between Liverpool and Hillcrest Village around 12:57 local time (LT) with peak winds of around 201 km/h (125 mph).

The twister had a maximum path width of 275 m (300 yards) and was on the ground for 14.1 km (8.78 miles), destroying multiple homes between Alvin and Liverpool and leaving substantial debris on parts of SH 35.

1 death and 5 injuries have been reported so far with this tornado.

Storm survey shows it tracked along Co Road 172 in rural Brazoria County into Hillcrest. EF-0 and EF-1 damage was observed along most of the tornado’s track. The most significant damage was surveyed at Walt Disney Elementary School, which suffered serious damage to the majority of its roof structure.

An EF-3 tornado was reported near Porter Heights, Texas at 12:05 LT, with a path length of over 16 km (10 miles) and peak winds reaching 225 km/h (140 mph).

The tornado had a maximum width of 1 500 m (1 675 yards) and was on the ground for 16.6 km (10.34 miles). The majority of its track showed high-end EF-1 and low-end EF-2 damage, with just one spot of EF-3 near the start.

A long-track EF-3 tornado struck Chambers County, Texas at 14:35 LT, injuring one person and covering a path length of around 35 km (22 miles), with peak winds of 222 km/h (138 mph).

Gaat heel naar worden komende dagen, misschien wel historisch. Ik zie al wat filmpjes met stofstormen in Texas, met daarbij enorme droogte en dus kans op branden. Ergste in de staten oost daarvan moet nog komen uiteraard.

��n enorm gelukje is dat er van de week al een flink front is geweest die de instabiliteit heeft weggeblazen. Als dat er ook nog bovenop was gekomen, hadden we aan de vooravond van een historische uitbraak gestaan.
