Powerful tornadoes have torn through central and southern U.S. states, leaving at least 3 people dead and causing widespread devastation. Missouri has been hit hardest, with officials confirming 12 fatalities across several counties.
Kansas also faced severe weather conditions, where a dust storm led to a massive 50-vehicle pileup, killing at least eight people. Meanwhile, Texas reported three deaths from storm-related car accidents, and Oklahoma confirmed one fatality.
In Mississippi, authorities recorded six storm-related deaths, while Arkansas officials reported three casualties and nearly 30 injuries. Emergency responders continue to assess the damage as new tornadoes remain a threat in Tennessee and Missouri.
Severe thunderstorms with damaging winds, hail, and additional tornadoes are expected to hit parts of the Lower Mississippi Valley and the Gulf Coast. In response, governors in Georgia and Arkansas have declared states of emergency, urging residents to remain on high alert.
Weather experts warn of “significant” and “potentially catastrophic” tornadoes as the storm system moves eastward, posing ongoing risks across the region.
