WYNNE, Ark. — Storms that dropped possibly dozens of tornadoes killed at least 18 people in small towns and big cities across the South and Midwest, tearing a path through the Arkansas capital, collapsing the roof of a packed concert venue in Illinois, and leaving people throughout the region bewildered Saturday by the damage.

Confirmed or suspected tornadoes in at least seven states destroyed homes and businesses, splintered trees, and lay waste to neighborhoods across a swath of the country home to some 85 million people. The dead included seven in Tennessee’s McNairy County, four in the small town of Wynne, Arkansas, and three in Sullivan, Indiana.

Other deaths were reported in Alabama, Illinois and Mississippi, along with one near Little Rock, where the mayor said more than 2,000 buildings were in a tornado’s path. Stunned residents of Wynne, a community of about 8,000 people 50 miles west of Memphis, Tennessee, woke Saturday to find the high school’s roof shredded and its windows blown out. Huge trees lay on the ground, their stumps reduced to nubs. Broken walls, windows and roofs pocked homes and businesses.

ryanhallyall If you stay inside the house while a tornado comes your dying

Quran states there are three ways God punishes, from the skies, and from down the earth and by wars between people,

Scriptures are full of such incidences how God punishes non-believers.... Yet, they dont believe in One Creator and are egoistic about their power based technological upheaval. We are powerless against God's will. We should first believe in Thw Creator n enjoy science

That’s why NO ONE wants to live in these GOD FORSAKEN states! The weather is HORRIBLE! Hot, HUMID & windy in the summer, dangerous tornadoes in the spring. 🤮

God does great work

ryanhallyall The death toll in McNairy Co Tn is now 9. Our sheriff released a statement earlier this evening.

Why isn't anyone calling to ban tornadoes at the rate they are calling to ban guns? It's just as silly of an idea.

ryanhallyall Had 2 come within 6-10 miles of my house last night back to back. It was terrifying.

ryanhallyall Or maybe they’re creating these super storms. Weird how the flight tracking radars shows these flights taking the same path prior to these crazy storms.

The White House Press Secretary states: “Our hearts go out to the tornadoes, as they are under attack right now.'
