April 10 (UPI) — A Mississippi county on Wednesday warned of a levee break on a lake, warning subdivision residents to evacuate immediately.
The evacuation comes as several more inches of rain are expected to fall across the region.
An announcement from the Yazoo County Sheriff’s Office said, “If you or someone that you know lives in the Eastbrook subdivision on Highway 16 in Yazoo County you need to evacuate IMMEDIATELY!!! The levee is about to break on the lake and the houses will flood. Please get out ASAP!!!”
On Facebook, the sheriff’s office added, “This will not affect any other besides the Eastbrook Subdivision. Emergency Management Officials are on scene, deputies are on scene evacuating the ones that needed to evacuate. This has nothing to do with the levee on Highway 3 in Yazoo City. Officials are on scene monitoring the conditions in this area.”
According to the National Weather Service tornadoes, hail and strong winds swept across Gulf Coast states Tuesday as a weather system continued to move eastward on Wednesday.
Yazoo County is about 20 miles northwest of Jackson.
The executive director of the Mississippi Emergency Management Agency said, “On Wednesday, April 10, the entire state will be at risk for severe weather. Tornadoes are likely, especially in South Mississippi. We at MEMA never want to cause panic or anxiety, but we encourage you to remain informed, prepared and vigilant over the next few days as we could experience significant weather.”
The National Weather Service also warned of some flooding as the Pearl River near Jackson was expected to pass flood stage.
The exodus of Mississippi State players continued Sunday afternoon with two more players announcing decisions to enter the transfer portal.
Running back Seth Davis and offensive lineman Luke Work have decided to enter the transfer portal. Both made their announcements in social media posts.
“I’m beyond thankful for my time at Mississippi State. These past two years gave me memories, friendships and lessons that I’ll carry with me for the rest of my life,” Work stated. “God gets all the glory. None of this would be possible without Him guiding my path. Thank you to every coach, teammate, staff member and all the amazing people I’ve met along the way. This place truly became family to me. No matter where the road takes me next, I’ll always be proud to say I wore maroon and white.”

Work played in 23 games in his two seasons in Starkville. He was thrust into the starting lineup last season as a true freshman, starting seven games including five at left tackle. This past season Work worked mostly at tackle and guard and played in every game except the first against Southern Miss because of an injury.
Davis began his collegiate career with a solid 2023 season, playing in all 12 games and running 59 times for 356 yards and one touchdown. However, his career was put on hold in that season’s Egg Bowl when he suffered a knee injury that forced him to miss all of the 2024 season.
The Katy, Texas native was able to return to action this season and played in two games. Against Alcorn State, Davis had five carries for 47 yards and one touchdown. He enters the portal with three years of eligibility remaining.
I have decided to enter the transfer portal with 3 years of eligibility.#Godsplan🙏🏾
Thank you Mississippi State❤️ pic.twitter.com/zr7Wuzkyxm
