(May 8, 2008)—A tornado touched down in Tupelo, Miss. and damaged a shopping mall and downed power lines.

There weren’t any reported injuries from the storm.

Authorities were getting reports about fallen trees and debris across the area, and officials were dispatched to check out the damage.

The Lee County sheriff's office says officers spotted a possible tornado moving in and out of the clouds.

Weather officials will have to confirm that the storm was a twister.

A number of northeast Mississippi counties and portions of northwest Alabama are under a tornado watch until mid-afternoon.

Special Weather Features
Cold Night...Gusty, Warm Tuesday!
From Rusty Garrett:

A cool, windy afternoon will evolve into a cold overnight with light winds, but the winds will return to the south by morning and become strong and gusty again by midday.
With dormant vegetation and very low relative humidity values, there is serious concern about grass and brush fires. A Red Flag Warning will be in effect Tuesday for virtually all of the News10 viewing area. Please heed any burn bans that may apply to your area.

Temperatures will warm to above normal readings Tuesday and Wednesday ahead of the next cold front, which will swing through the area late Wednesday, bringing us another round of windy and cooler weather for the end of the workweek. A slow warming trend is expected this weekend.
