Storms rip across country, leaving two dead, thousands without power

This week’s storms have been no joke, with more potentially on the horizon.

 

At least two people were killed, and more than a million people lost power as storms rolled through the eastern United States overnight Monday.

 

Thousands of people from Pennsylvania through Georgia still haven’t regained power, according to tracking sites.

 

Federal employees were sent home early on Monday, as the National Weather Service (NWS) declared a tornado watch in the area for the first time in a decade.

 

More than 1,700 flights in the U.S. were canceled on Monday and more than 8,800 were delayed, according to flight trackers.
