4. It is going to take a bit to figure it all out. Kudos to the newscasters today that didn't show dama

damage but kept on task of following the tornadoes and warning people where they were and were going. They kept saying eventually they'd show picts and vids that were coming in, but not until the urgency of the current tornadoes was over.

6. ABC NEWS: Storms, Tornadoes Leave Dozens Dead in Alabama, Mississippi, Georgia and Tennessee

Thunderstorms, severe winds and tornadoes slammed the South Wednesday, killing dozens of people in four states.

The numbers of known dead in Alabama rose rapidly this evening. At least 58 were killed in the state Wednesday, The Associated Press reported after 11 p.m. ET.

The toll came soon after ABC News Birmingham, Ala., affiliate WBMA, also known as "33/40," reported at least 53 people dead, which was not long after Alabama emergency officials told ABC News at least 40 had died.

"There are more out there to be confirmed because search and rescue is underway in a number the counties," Alabama Emergency Management Agency information manager Yasamie August said. "However, there are still storm systems moving through the county, as we speak."

In addition, at least 11 were dead in Mississippi, ABC News confirmed.
