Severe Weather Kills At Least 11 People In Georgia, USA
At least 11 people are dead and 23 people injured after severe weather struck central Georgia early Sunday, state officials said.
Catherine Howden of the Georgia Emergency Management Agency told the Associated Press that the deaths occurred in Cook, Brooks and Berrien counties.
Howden said the deaths were related to severe weather, but could not specify whether tornadoes were the cause.
Local officials are still assessing the area, and no other information was immediately available.
Tornado warnings had been issued for parts of Georgia overnight, and the state was expecting more severe weather during the day Sunday.
Across southeast Georgia, a rare “high risk” of severe weather and tornadoes is in place Sunday, Fox 5 Atlanta reported.
Locations in the high risk could experience stronger, longer track tornadoes – as opposed to a brief spin-up.
The southeastern United States has been pounded by storms, high winds and unstable weather over the weekend. Four people died after a tornado with winds above 136 mph tore a 25-mile path across southern Mississippi before dawn Saturday.
The National Weather Service in Jacksonville, Florida, has issued a tornado warning for Echols, Clinch and Ware counties in southeastern Georgia. A severe thunderstorm warning was in effect for the Florida panhandle.
