After the National Weather Service conducted detailed satellite analysis, they were able to confirm two additional tornadoes from the June 4th severe weather event. These were embedded circulations in an extensive line of storms.
The first one started 4 miles WNW of Liberty, MS along Enterprise Road. This tornado then moved eastward towards Toler Lane, where it peaked in intensity. Here, a swath of at least 20 pine trees were snapped clean near the base. This tornado then weakened as it moved east
over highway 567 where only limbs were knocked down. The tornado came to the end of its lifecycle near McLain and Meadville Road where it uprooted more pines and broke off large limbs.
