Tornado (EF4) — Walthall, Mississippi
March 15, 2025 · NOAA Storm Events record
Event narrative (NOAA)
A tornado entering Walthal County from Pike County, already over a half a mile wide, was still strengthening. Pockets of EF3 damaged occurred all along the path as it continued through Walthall County. West of Tylertown on the north side of Mississippi Highway 98, a well built, well anchored home, was swept from the foundation, leaving debris in a pile and thrown behind the home. This home was determined to have 170 MPH EF4 damage. It is likely the tornado was at EF4 strength at other parts on the track but with only manufactured homes in rural areas impacted, this house is currently the only EF4 damage in Walthall County. The EF3 damage throughout the county was all demolished single or double wide manufactured home with the debris swept away. Widespread snapped and uprooted trees were no
