Deadly tornadoes that tore through the South and Midwest U.S. have left at least 11 dead, local media reported Saturday.
At least five people were killed in Arkansas, three people killed in Sullivan County, Indiana, and one death each in Alabama, Mississippi, Illinois, local media said.
A blast of extreme spring weather swept much of the United States on Friday, menacing the nation's midsection from Texas to the Great Lakes with thunderstorms and tornados.
Large trees were uprooted, rooftops smashed, buildings severely damaged, and even 18-wheelers blown over, according to images posted online.
The turbulent weather occurred one week after a swarm of thunderstorms unleashed a deadly tornado that devastated the Mississippi town of Rolling Fork, destroying many of the community's 400 homes and killing 26 people.
