Deadly Storms Cut Through The South And Midwest, Spawning Tornadoes
3 days ago
Violent storms and tornadoes tore through cities from Oklahoma to Indiana during what could be a record-setting period of deadly weather and flooding. The storms destroyed homes and sent debris nearly 5 miles into the air in one location. Dozens of tornado and severe thunderstorm warnings were issued Wednesday and early Thursday from Texas to West Virginia as storms hit those and other states. At least six people were killed in Tennessee, Indiana and Missouri. Forecasters say it was the opening act for a week of wild weather that could bring life-threatening flash floods across the nation’s midsection.
