A severe storm system caused flooding and dangerous winds across the central United States and Midwest on Easter weekend, resulting in two deaths in Oklahoma when a vehicle became stranded. Rescue efforts managed to save a majority of the occupants, yet two people died when their vehicle was swept under a bridge during the storm. The National Weather Service indicated multiple severe weather warnings, including the potential for damaging hail and tornadoes across affected states like Arkansas and Missouri, ending Sunday night with risks continuing into Illinois.
The National Weather Service reported that severe storms could produce hail the size of golf balls, winds up to 70 miles per hour, and strong tornadoes.
A woman and a 12-year-old boy were found dead in Moore, Oklahoma, after their vehicle was swept under a bridge by floodwaters.
