Hi this is Ros updating Nuala's post. The death toll now stands . We'll find out more about the situation in Alabama and neighboroughing states with the help of some of you there.

Nuala's original post:
The is reporting 83 dead in five states after severe storms and tornadoes swept across the States from Texas to Georgia yesterday. caused by the severe weather which began early in the week culminating in a tornado in Alabama yesterday.


President Obama , we know more than 350,000 are without power and many are still trapped in buildings. As daybreak begins in the United States, emergency crews are just starting to assess the extent of the damage. If you would like to speak to us, please do get in touch.
