Yesterday morning, after tornadoes passed the states of Arkansas, Tennessee and Mississippi, at least 11 people were killed and more than 30 injured. By this morning, tornadoes continued to land in two other states, Kentucky and Alabama, bringing the total number of deaths to 54 and hundreds of wounded.
The storm passed, leaving completely broken roads, hundreds of houses just as rubble, a gasoline factory in Nashville blown up and swung to 122m high, more than 51 students at one Religious schools in Tennessee are trapped under ruins and fortunately saved.
The Norman, Oklahoma meteorological forecasting center in the US said that although they had announced the storm six days in advance, it was still impossible to prevent many accidents.
In addition, the agency also said that this tornado season will last until mid-summer, so storms can come at any time of the year. Recent studies show that these tornadoes may be caused by the cold sea phenomenon in the tropical Pacific center, also known as the La Nina phenomenon, which can divert the path to any any other place in the world.
According to the assessment, this storm is the deadliest storm in the US in the past 23 years. A "death" storm on May 31, 1985 swept across the region of Pennsylvania and Ohio, killing 76 people.
