1028 AM     Tornado          3 NW Kiln               30.45N 89.46W

04/10/2024                   Hancock            MS   NWS Storm Survey 



            An embedded EF1 tornado with max wind speeds 

            of 100mph that tracked for 3.72 miles 

            following along the backside of the 

            mesovortex was identified using high 

            resolution satellite imagery NDVI 

            differencing where more localized damage to 

            trees and structures were identified via 

            ground survey. This tornado tracked 

            primarily along MS Highway 43 with the most 

            widespread damage being located along the 

            curve in Cuevas Road where a swath of trees 

            appeared to be damaged on satellite imagery 

            in addition to observed damage with ground 

            survey. This is where the tornado appeared 

            to be at its strongest. Thereafter, the 

            damage path in NDVI differencing gradually 

            weakens and the tornado is estimated to have 

            dissipated as it crossed the Silver Creek 

            Acres neighborhood where tree damage was 

            found near Violet Street and Gardenia Street 

            in Kiln.

Preliminary Local Storm Report

..TIME...   ...EVENT...      ...CITY LOCATION...     ...LAT.LON...

            ..REMARKS..



1031 AM     Tornado          2 NNW Kiln              30.45N 89.44W

04/10/2024                   Hancock            MS   NWS Storm Survey 



            High resolution satellite imagery aided in 

            identifying an embedded EF0 tornado with max 

            wind speeds of 85mph that trailed the parent 

            mesovortex that tracked for 2.79 miles 

            through the area. More localized tree damage 

            in addition to an evident damage path on 

            NDVI differencing helped to confirm the 

            existence of this tornado which tracked from 

            Firetower Road east-southeastward to Old Joe 

            Moran Road. The end point is estimated per 

            satellite imagery which occurred over 

            inaccessible rural lands.
