Tornadoes ripped through several southeastern states on Thursday with extensive damage in parts of Alabama and Georgia.
The National Weather Service will continue to assess the damage across Alabama following Thursday’s severe weather.
So far one tornado has been confirmed, an EF-1 with top winds of 104 mph that carved a 30-mile track through northwest Alabama.
The number of tornadoes will almost certainly climb today, with damage assessments scheduled for multiple hard-hit central and south Alabama communities and damage spread across much of the state.
The weather service in Birmingham said it is sending out multiple survey teams across central Alabama today.
Included in the death toll is a 5-year-old.
