Mississippi was hit hard by high winds that downed trees and power lines, causing outages for 38,000 residents. In Missouri, strong winds left 190,000 without electricity.
The storm brought blizzards to the Midwest, hurricane-force winds to Texas, and tornadoes in Oklahoma and Texas. Louisiana and Mississippi saw Mardi Gras disruptions due to tornado warnings, while Texas faced widespread outages and wildfire risks.

Tornado watches extended to the Carolinas and Virginia, as the storm continued to impact multiple states.
