Deadly storm hits Texas and Mississippi, three killed

American media reports have stated that at least three people have died in the aftermath of a storm that hit the states of Mississippi and Texas.

CNN reported on Sunday, December 29, that as a result of the storm, power was temporarily cut to at least 200,000 customers in several U.S. states.

According to the report, 383 domestic and international flights were canceled, and 649 others were delayed due to the storm.

Authorities in Texas and Mississippi have confirmed that three people died when trees fell on a residence and a vehicle during the storm in parts of these two states.

The U.S. National Weather Service has issued warnings that more eastern states are expected to experience storms with lightning and heavy rainfall in the coming days.

As the situation continues to unfold, emergency services and local authorities are working tirelessly to assist those affected, clear debris, and restore essential services. The scale of the destruction serves as a reminder of the power and unpredictability of extreme weather events, which are becoming more frequent due to changing climate conditions.

In the coming days, recovery efforts will be crucial for communities impacted by the storm. Local governments are urging residents to stay informed and follow safety guidelines as more severe weather is expected to move across the region.
