YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

A major storm system with a deadly mix of heavy rains, winds and flash flooding swept through a large swath of the Southeast over the weekend, causing at least nine fatalities in Kentucky and one in Georgia.

The storms rendered some roads impassable, damaged buildings and knocked out power to hundreds of thousands of homes and businesses. The National Weather Service reported at least one tornado overnight in Alabama, and tornado warnings were issued in multiple states.

Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear said at a Sunday afternoon press conference that at least eight people had been killed in the state during the storm, including a woman and child who died in floodwaters. Beshear said he expected the number of fatalities to rise. Another person died in Atlanta after a tree fell on their home, WANF reported.
