"WARTBURG, Tenn. (AP) - Emergency crews searched for survivors early Monday
amid the wreckage from a series of pulverizing tornadoes that barreled
through Alabama, Tennessee and Ohio, killing at least 31 people and
injuring more than 100.
A wide band of storms stretched from Louisiana to Ohio, with Tennessee and
Alabama the hardest hit. The death toll included 16 in Tennessee, 10 in
Alabama and five in Ohio, while 45 people were unaccounted for in the rural
town of Mossy Grove, officials said.
A tornado cut a swath five to six miles long just before 9 p.m. Sunday,
killing seven people in the town about 40 miles west of Knoxville.
Emergency crews relied on ham radio operators for communication since phone
lines were knocked out by the storm. "
