LIST: School districts closed, delayed Wednesday due to severe weather

JACKSON, Miss. (WLBT) - Wednesday is an Alert Day across Central Mississippi due to the threat of severe weather. It will impact the entire region, but not everyone will get the worst of the weather, and certainly not at the same time.

Tuesday night, there were reports of tornadoes, damaging wind, and hail. The system continues to threaten our area throughout Wednesday.
