Officials are assessing the damage after a strong storm system moved across the southern U.S. over the weekend, spawning tornadoes and killing at least four people. A meteorologist with the National Weather Service’s Weather Prediction Center said Sunday there were at least 45 reports of tornado damage over the weekend across Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Georgia. The storms during busy holiday travels caused some treacherous road conditions along with delays or cancellations at some of the busiest U.S. airports. Tens of thousands of people are still without power. The storms also complicated recovery efforts from the earlier Hurricane Helene.
