FROM REUTERS:

"Severe storms that included at least one tornado killed six people in
Arkansas and Mississippi, part of a system that stretched across the
nation's midsection on Saturday.

The severe weather was part of a line of thunderstorms that spanned the
Mississippi Valley from the Great Lakes to the Gulf of Mexico as a cold
front swept through the region. The National Weather Service (news - web
sites) posted tornado warnings in western Kentucky and severe weather
warnings were issued for western Tennessee. Storms earlier had passed
through parts of Louisiana, Oklahoma, Missouri and Texas."
