Daarbij viel minstens één dodelijk slachtoffer. De stad met 35.000 inwoners zit grotendeels zonder stroom, er werd een avondklok ingesteld.
De meeste doden vielen zondag, toen tornado's wagens in het rond deden vliegen in onder meer Arkansas. De twister die door Tupelo raasde bracht schade toe aan honderden huizen.
Hulpverleners gaan van huis tot huis, zo verklaarde de politiechef tegenover Reuters. De burgemeester roept iedereen op binnen te blijven.
