The National Weather Service confirms a tornado hit the central Mississippi city of Madison.
The agency, in a Twitter post Saturday, said a survey team confirmed Friday’s damage was the result of an EF1 tornado.
Several trees were snapped along the path, and multiple structures were damaged as a severe thunderstorm struck the city around 5 p.m. A 97 mph (156 kph) wind gust was recorded as the tornado crossed Bruce Campbell Field and about a dozen homes in the Sandalwood Subdivision had structural damage. Wind damage was also reported at the Madison Airport.
There were no reports of injuries.
