Southern states have been hit by torrential rain, flooding and other storm damage this week as a deadly weather system continues to move through the country.
Multiple tornadoes were reported across Texas, Louisiana and Alabama Tuesday and Wednesday, and wind advisories warned of gusts in the central Appalachians and parts of the Southeast.
The Gulf Coast was hit hard Wednesday, with school closures, power outages, travel complications and building damage from the storms. One person, a 64-year-old woman, died in Mississippi after her oxygen machine stopped working after losing power in Scott County, according to Weather.com, citing Scott County Sheriff Chief Deputy Brad Ellis.
Storms were expected to spread across the eastern part of the Southeast as the system moves towards the Atlantic.
