A powerful storm system that sparked devastating tornadoes, dust storms and forest fires across the center and the south of the United States during the weekend left at least 39 dead.
The meteorological system weaken but still unpredictable, which caused general destruction, moving hundreds of their homes and breaking the communities, moved to the Southeast and Middle Atlantic regions of the United States on Monday.
While the system seemed to calm down, it has always brought thunderstorms, a hail, damaged winds and a continuous risk of tornadoes. The forecasters expressed warnings for dangerous winds extending from Florida to New Jersey, while heavy rains threatened areas in New York and New England.
The US National Weather Service published a tornado watch early Monday for some parts of North Carolina and Virginia, warning residents of wind gusts potentially reaching 70 mph (113 km / h) and hail the size of ping-pong balls.
High risk weather and amazing losses
The Storm Front, which started on Friday, was declared a rare “high risk” event by meteorologists. Such extreme time is not uncommon in March, but the system has inflicted extraordinary damage in a widespread area.
In Tyletown, Mississippi, whole districts were left in ruins while tornadoes took imposing trees and erased houses. Governor Tate Reeves confirmed that six people had lost their lives and more than 200 residents had been moved.
Wind forest fires have crossed certain parts of Texas and Oklahoma. The authorities said that 130 fires had been recorded through Oklahoma alone, damaging or destroying nearly 400 houses. Governor Kevin Stitt said two people had been killed in the state due to extreme fires and weather conditions.
Devastation continued in Texas, where forest fires have forced evacuations. Three deaths were reported due to accidents of vehicles related to dust storms.
In Kansas, the lack of visibility caused a multi-vehicle stack. Eight people were killed in the collision involving at least 50 vehicles.

Communities are struggling with the consequences of the tornado
In the center of Alabama, the tornadoes killed three people, including an 82 -year -old woman, when they swept the state. In Troy, a local leisure center acting as a refuge was damaged overnight, forcing residents to look for alternative housing.
In Arkansas, which was also hardly affected, governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders confirmed three deaths, which prompted the deployment of national guard troops to help rescue and recovery efforts.
President Donald Trump said the White House was monitoring storms and would help state officials and resumption.
While the storm system continued to move northeast, residents through the affected states remained on a high alert. Emergency services and volunteers worked tirelessly to assess the damage and help communities as a result of one of the most serious weather events of the year.
