At least 23 people killed and several others injured in Alabama during at least two tornadoes in the state, as twisters struck across the Southeast Sunday.
The big picture: Tornadoes were also reported in Georgia and Florida, but the hardest-hit area was around Beauregard in Lee County, Alabama, the AP reports. The county's sheriff, Jay Jones, said there would be an organized search Monday morning for people still missing, according to WSFA. The storms were part of a larger weather system bringing heavy snow to New York and Boston overnight.
