Walthall County storm victims still recovering after tornadoes
SUMMARY: Walthall County, particularly Tyler Town, is still recovering from the March 15 tornadoes. Emergency management reports significant progress, but widespread damage means recovery will take time. Cleanup efforts are ongoing, with volunteer groups and a cleanup company assisting. A “Helping a Home” program connects affected families with resources like donations and cleanup help. Despite some power restoration, downed transmission lines remain an issue.
