Tornadoes and Violent Storms Hit Southeast, Leaving at Least Three Dead

Source: New York Times

NASHVILLE — At least three people died and multiple homes and businesses in Alabama were damaged and some even leveled as a result of powerful storms and tornadoes moving across the Southeast on Thursday.

The National Weather Service reported multiple tornadoes in Alabama, including one that likely traveled over 100 miles, from near Birmingham to the northeastern corner of the state.

The three deaths were reported in Calhoun County, where crews were performing search-and-rescue operations to look for any more people who were injured or killed, said Tiffany DeBoer, a spokeswoman for the county’s emergency management agency. The exact causes of the deaths was not immediately available, she said.

At least one tornado touched down near Birmingham, leaving residents to contend with piles of debris and the loss of electricity and the authorities to assess the severity of the devastation.
