With dozens dead, scores of buildings reduced to rubble and some communities all but obliterated, residents of the Midwest and South begin the week Sunday assessing the devastation wrought by a series of vicious tornadoes. The massive outbreak began Friday and extended into the next day, eventually affecting about 17 million people from Indiana to Georgia, CNN reported. By the time the powerful storm system faded, 37 were killed: 18 in Kentucky, 14 in Indiana, three in Ohio and one each in Alabama and Florida. 'It's like a bomb went off and everything is splintered, bricks are down and trees, and (there's) just a lot of debris,' said Ohio's Governor John Kasich.
