Texas' record heat wave enters 3rd week as storms slam southern U.S.
"Over 50 million people in the southern U.S. were under heat advisories and many others were facing the threat of severe weather that spawned tornadoes and thunderstorms over the weekend and into Monday.
State of play: The severe storms saw an estimated 168,000 customers lose power in Georgia, along with some 132,000 others in both Kentucky and Tennessee and a further 126,000 in Arkansas early Monday, while a series of suspected tornadoes late Sunday damaged property in Indiana and killed a person in the state's Martin County.
Thunderstorms caused flight delays in major transport hubs Sunday in New York City, Atlanta, Detroit, Cleveland, Louisville, Cincinatti, Philadelphia and Detroit, while flights to and from D.C.-area airports were suspended in the evening due to an air traffic control issue before the FAA switched to a "backup facility," per the Washington Post."
