Mississippi River Valley

Residents of southern states along the Mississippi River are bracing for the flooding that has swamped communities from the Ohio River Valley to eastern Oklahoma over the last week, causing thousands of evacuations and killing at least 31 people.

A tornado ripped into a town in Mexico on Monday, killing at least 11 people and flattening hundreds of homes in a deadly six-second blast of carnage, officials said.

At least one man was killed in record-setting flash flooding in Texas that also left several people missing and destroyed homes Sunday, authorities said, warning of more wild weather to come.
