Three people are dead after dangerous and powerful storms swept through the South on Thursday after tornadoes made a powerful mark outside Nashville. 

During rush hour in Atlanta, the storm swept through the area before moving north toward North Carolina. Flights out of Atlanta and Charlotte were delayed as a result. The National Weather Service’s Storm Prediction Center said there was an “enhanced risk” for severe weather from Texas to South Carolina and those in between.
