Severe weather has battered several U.S. states in recent weeks.
Tornadoes, thunderstorms and flooding continue to batter states including Texas, Oklahoma and Pennsylvania. On Wednesday, significant weather-related damage and injuries were reported in the central states. Some residents were forced to flee their homes, while others hunkered down in storm shelters.
As rain and wind continued across large swathes of the region, the National Weather Service’s tornado watch continued through 11 p.m. CDT from north of Canton all the way down to Hearne. The possibility of rain and thunderstorms continued through the evening, with some Texas areas braced for potential flooding.
Oklahoma also experienced dangerous storms late Wednesday afternoon, with a possible tornado reported in McCurtain County, according to KSLA. McCurtain County Sheriff Kevin Clardy told The Texarkana Gazette there didn’t seem to be any injuries linked to the 5.00 p.m. storm that touched down near Beavers Bend State Park. “There are some trees down and power lines down. That's what the park rangers are reporting," he told the publication.
Kansas is reeling from a large tornado that plowed through southwest Douglas County, southeast Lawrence and Leavenworth County, the National Weather Service reported. The storm stopped producing a tornado after it reached western Kansas City. However a new tornado emerged in Clay County, Missouri, which persisted until it hit the area north of Excelsior Springs
