Yes. I´d suggest : At least the upper lines from "TORNADO WARNING MOC209-213-052215- " ISSUED and UNTIL to towns evolved. Advisory to the people could be left out, so scrolling and reading will be more comfortable.

Looks like its track is bending to the right a little, Greenville, MS could be in the path.
I think north and west Greenville need to keep a watch out for bad weather.
