Mississippi tornado warning is that a potent weather system is moving towards the Mississippi River Valley. This signals that this weekend may just be the end of America's tornado drought. This Mississippi tornado warning reports that the storm system will possibly result in a multi-day severe weather outbreak including thunderstorms that could create tornadoes from Saturday to Monday.

If the Mississippi tornado warning is correct and the 3-day outbreak does happen, this will increase 2014's tornado tally. This year's current  record is reportedly low territory. What this means is that this year's tornado-related fatality is also low. However, with this Mississippi tornado warning, this low number of tornado-related deaths may end.

Chief of operations at the Storm Prediction Center in Norman, Oklahoma Bill Bunting said on Mashable that the components which can cause the huge and frightening weather outburst may likely begin its appearance Saturday in the High Plains states. One of the components that can make reality the Mississippi tornado warning is a strong low-pressure area in the upper atmosphere. This will create the development of a surface low in the Plains, including abundant low-level moisture and winds that fluctuate in speed and direction with height.

Bunting added to the Mississippi tornado warning, "This is a very strong upper system with very strong wind shear." He also said that residents of Omaha to New Orleans must take to seriousness the Mississippi tornado warning and that they should watch closely the weather conditions this weekend to prepare.

Bunting said in relation to the Mississippi tornado warning, "We are on track for at least a 3-day round of severe weather. It's difficult to say at this time just how significant" the event will be.

According to Bunting, the Mississippi tornado warning may hold true on Saturday and will quite possibly have its focus on the High Plains and Eastern Plains. The tornado will likely affect cities such as Omaha, Neb.; Lincoln, Neb.; Wichita, Kan.; Oklahoma City, Olka.; and Abilene, Texas. On Sunday, the storms' target will shift from Omaha to Little Rock in the threat area. By Monday, the tornadoes may cause terror in Columbia, Mo.; St. Louis, Mo.; Memphis, Tenn.; Little Rock, Ark.; Nashville, Tenn.; Birmingham, Ala.; and even as far south as New Orleans.

How did the experts make this Mississippi tornado warning and predict other possible route of the thunderstorms?

Forecasters use a tool called analogs which anticipates tornado outbreaks and make predictions like the Mississippi tornado warning. Anaolgs are just one of the many tools they use to predict these devastating weather conditions which can take the lives of many. The analogs also looks back down memory lane and consults history in order to anricipate the tornados.

For this Mississippi tornado warning for the coming weekend, the analogs looked back on some notorious ruthless weather outbreaks, such as the tornado outbreak in May 3, 1999 in Oklahoma where an EF-5 tornado ripped through the Oklahoma City suburb of Moore. The outbreak cost more or less $1 billion in damages and took 36 lives.

Despite these predictions and the Mississippi tornado warning, Bunting said that history won't necessarily repeat itself this weekend. He said, "Using analogs to say that because something happened years ago with a similar setup it will happen again."

Mississippi tornado warning may or may not hold true, but it is still best to be prepared to avoid worst case scenarios. Reports say the storms will not only pose a tornado threat, but also flash flooding, since they will be slow-movers.
