Large tree snapped and downed. Landed on a home off of Caldwell Ave.

The wider storm

Significant instability built across the Mid-South as temperatures climbed into the upper 70s and lower 80s and dewpoints topped out in the mid to upper 60s. This warm moist air provided very high instability for this time of year. Additionally, plentiful shear and exceptional lapse rates were available. A shortwave was able to pivot through the area during the overnight hours resulting in damaging winds and hail.

Began near Calhoun City (33.8600, -89.3100).
