Fifty three million people across the United States were in harm’s way as a powerful storm system raged across the Midwest on Sunday, spawning at least one deadly tornado that left a path of destruction in parts of Illinois.
“We obviously have a very dangerous situation on our hands and it’s just getting started,” said Laura Furgione, deputy director of the National Weather Service.
She added, “Get ready now.”
Parts of the Great Lakes, Ohio Valley, lower-middle Mississippi Valley and Tennessee Valley are among the areas most at risk for widespread damaging winds and possible tornadoes, experts with the Weather Channel said.
Bill Bunting, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service said one tornado was already reported shortly after noon in Peoria, Ill. The National Weather Service reported that the twister was moving northeast at about 55 miles per hour.
