Millions of people in the central United States from the Rocky Mountains to the Midwest are bracing for blizzard-like conditions.
Much of the central United States from the Rocky Mountains to the Midwest was braced Tuesday for blizzard-like conditions, while states farther to the south saw tornado warnings from a massive storm blowing across the country.
"This is a 'we are not kidding' kind of storm," the South Dakota Department of Public Safety said Monday in a tweet urging people to stock up on essentials, then stay home once the storm hits. Damage was reported in the Oklahoma town of Wayne after the weather service warned of a "confirmed tornado" shortly after 5 a.m. Tuesday. Video footage from Oklahoma TV station KOCO showed substantial damage to a home in Wayne, which is about 45 miles south of Oklahoma City.
The weather is part of the same system that dumped heavy snow in the Sierra Nevada over the weekend before moving east. "We told them with this storm coming - if you leave tomorrow, there's a good chance you might not make it," he said Monday.
