Deadly Memorial Day Weekend Storms Ravage Central US

Powerful storms, including tornadoes and damaging winds, ravaged several US states over Memorial Day weekend, resulting in at least 24 deaths and widespread power outages. Texas was particularly hard-hit, with severe weather causing significant damage, flight cancellations, and extended power outages. The storms, exacerbated by an early-season heat wave, also disrupted local elections and caused fatalities in multiple states. The Federal Emergency Management Agency is assessing the damage as the region continues to recover.
