Multiple tornadoes confirmed as severe weather threats continue for much of the country

The pattern of severe weather is continuing over the next couple of days, threatening tens of millions of Americans on Sunday and even more on Monday.

A large swath of the U.S. -- from the Canadian border to the north down to the Gulf Coast in the South -- is at risk for damaging winds tornados, especially in Kentucky, Indiana and Ohio, forecasts show.

At least two tornadoes were confirmed in Indiana by storm spotters on Sunday -- one with apparent debris near Crane, Indiana, and another near Fairland, Indiana. At least 75 homes were damaged, Bargersville Fire Chief Eric Funkhouser said. No one was seriously injured, he said.

There is at least one fatality from the series of storms that primarily hit Indiana on Sunday, an official said.

Monty Wolf, director of the Martin County EMA, confirmed to ABC News that a man was killed when a suspected tornado tore his house apart in the Lost River Township portion of the county. The man's wife was airlifted to the hospital with serious injuries, Wolf said. This is a separate reported tornado from the one in Johnson County, which is a little less than 100 miles away.

The number of people under severe weather threat will increase from 57 million on Sunday to 86 million on Monday as the line of potent thunderstorms marches toward the Atlantic coast.
