A large family in Taylorsville, Mississippi, is spending their Saturday in a safe room made of cinder blocks as the town faces multiple tornado warnings. Despite their house being undamaged so far, Stacy Bryant Hawkins is worried about the safety of her family, especially her 84-year-old mother who refused to leave her home. Hawkins insisted on having a safe room built in their home due to the frequent tornadoes in Smith County. The family, including her daughter-in-law, sister-in-law, a two-year-old, and four dogs, has been taking shelter in the safe room as the storms pass through. Unfortunately, Hawkins’ brother-in-law’s home was hit directly by a tornado, with a tree ending up in their master bedroom. Despite friends and family coming together to help, the situation remains uncertain. The family remains vigilant and prepared as they continue to face the threat of severe weather throughout the day.
