Deluge over: Southeast cleaning up debris of rain, twisters

Birmingham flooding
Associated Press

 

Storms brought flooding and tornadoes across the Southeast on Tuesday and cleanup has begun.

Crews used shovels and heavy machinery to remove debris from roads and bridges in Birmingham after much of the metro area had flooded. Schools in the area  were delayed and others held classes online because of the water levels.

From Arkansas to Virginia there were still around 100,000 homes and businesses without power at midday Wednesday, which was down from more than 240,000 earlier.
