2 Dead, 6 Injured After Tornadoes Hit Texas

Several powerful tornadoes swept through Texas and Mississippi, causing widespread destruction, fatalities, and injuries.

The devastating storms left two people dead, six injured, and dozens of homes and vehicles damaged.

In Brazoria County, Texas, authorities confirmed one death in the Liverpool area, south of Houston. Four others sustained non-critical injuries, according to local reports.

Officials noted that about 10 homes were damaged in the region, with assessments of the full extent of destruction ongoing.

In Mississippi, another fatality was reported in Adams County, and two individuals were injured in Franklin County, as confirmed by the Mississippi Emergency Management Agency.

The US National Weather Service's Severe Storm Tracker reported the storm system moving eastward across Alabama into Georgia earlier today.

Warnings of severe thunderstorms and possible tornadoes have been issued for western Georgia and the northwestern tip of Florida, including areas over the Gulf of Mexico.

Tornadoes were particularly destructive in the towns of Bude and Brandon, Mississippi, where they tore through neighborhoods, damaging rooftops and buildings. Meteorologists have cautioned that these storms are expected to intensify later in the evening and overnight as they continue their eastward trajectory.

Authorities urge residents in the affected regions to remain vigilant and follow safety advisories as cleanup and rescue operations are underway.
