Further tornadoes
touched down again in central and southern America including Alabama, Mississippi and Tennessee on 29th
April 2014 leaving a path of destruction and claiming more lives. 17
people were killed on Monday, bringing the total death toll over the two days
to 35.
Tupelo in Mississippi and Louisville were the worse hit on Monday. 9 people died in the town of Louisville
when a tornado rated as an EF4 struck the town. 2 people were also killed in Lincoln County.
There have been
preliminary reports of over 80 tornadoes; however the number could be lower due
to some being reported more than once and this will only be confirmed after
assessments are carried out.
Further watches and
warnings are in place as the Counties brace themselves for further severe
weather. Photos below show the impact of the damage on Monday and the forecast
and further watches and warnings in place.
