At least seven deaths have been reported in connection with a series of tornadoes and severe weather with the intention of ripped through several states from Kentucky to Tennessee Monday, authorities said. Forecasters anticipate more rain and storms today to slam across the Midwest, as the system moves east.
In Arkansas, three people were killed in rising floodwaters and two died in a town where a possible tornado barreled through Monday, according to the Associated Press. In Vilonia, Ark., north of Little Rock, where a possible whirlwind killed two people, Caroline Thompson recalled taking cover seeing that the storm approached. "We all ended up in the closet. And then you possibly will just hear crashing and stuff being knocked around and blown around. And it tore us up," Thompson said.
