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.
