Watch: Tornado damage in northeast Alabama

Forecasters said more bad weather was likely in northeast Alabama after tornadoes knocked down power lines and caused scattered damage across farms. The weather service said two twisters that spun out of the same storm system appeared responsible for the damage.

Blount County: Tornadoes knocked down power lines and caused scattered damage across farms early Monday in northeast Alabama, and forecasters said more bad weather was likely.

High winds left trees tilted sideways and utility lines drooped toward the ground. Farm buildings and homes were damaged in rural Blount County, Alabama, where at least one person was reported injured.

The weather service said two twisters that spun out of the same storm system appeared responsible for the damage.

An EF-1 tornado with winds of as much as 90 mph hit Blount County, and the EF-1 tornado that struck Guntersville was a little stronger with winds up to 100 mph.

The Storm Prediction Center says 26 million people were at a slight risk of being affected by severe storms in Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia and the Carolinas.
