the rainfall diminished across the portions of metro atlanta, on to even birmingham as all the energy has bottled up. panama city, and destin have been just battered with upwards of three, maybe four inches. the rainfall should steppextendo the north, we expect it to be more southwards. tornadoes upwards of 90, now with the final report would make the number ten, ten reports of tornadoes across the country, 39 wind-related damages, 39 hail-related damages. and the flood watch extends a thousand miles to the northeast as heavy rainfall is expected to come down with the storm system even out to portions of new york city once it makes it out there the next couple of days. quickly, the satellite imagery coming out of oklahoma from sunday afternoon, we know a fatality took place in the town of quapaw, population about 800 people. they gave about one minute's notice for folks to take cover. pretty remarkable to see this. and the storm stayed on the ground for some 13 miles and moved onto portions of kansas as well, causing damage in that region, as well. >> also damage in tupelo, mississippi, where elvis was actually

birmingham had over 2 inches of rain, even new york city getting upwards of about an inch of rain over the next two days as the line makes its way across. then there is the snow side of the equation, talking about an inch or so around albany, even chicago today looking for a trace of snow around columbus, ohio, looking for an inch, so not a lot. but if there's snow, you know it will be cold. look at this, temperatures well above normal into the northeast today. below normal, about 20 degrees below normal into the midwest. watch as that system makes its way across. now we all start to dip down temperaturewise by wednesday. in the northeast, going from 15 to 20 above to a good 15 degrees below, almost a 30-degree temperature drop over the next several days. it is going to feel like winter, but overnight tonight, if you want to see the lunar eclipse, you could definitely see that in the midwest, looks to be 3:45 a.m. eastern time. very hard to see with the cloud cover and snow. >> but the snow won't be on the ground for easter, come on. >> better not be. >> thanks, indra. >> all right. >>

people you talked about but the sharecroppers and the people in the cities who are on the front lines the ones who were in birmingham that got hit by the water and whose lives and livelihoods they were willing to put on the line and then maybe also psychologically what they did by taking part in most things have that psychologically freed people and they weren't just slaves anymore. >> tot i just wanted to come back using your question to clarence that's incredibly because for them they also have to fear being fired from their job a story that those of you annapolis to place here so they have to worry about providing for their families, protecting their children and they put on their sunday best and stand in line to be abused by that man. to me that's a crime. i will just tell you, the idea of sacrifice because you don't know especially if you are the father in the family what are you going to do if they take away your mortgage, take away your job? how are you going to stand up and be a man in that family? it's tough. >> maybe we have time for one more question. >> thank you. it's been a great panel. you've talked a

storms that moved through and dropped tornadoes from yazoo city in jackson, alabama, and they ever overnight through places like tuscaloosa and birmingham. now take a look at where the moderate risk is, it's a lot of the exact same areas. generally you have a tornado system go through, and then things are clear behind it but so many of them people doing their cleanup and rescue and recovery they're dealing right right now, the atmosphere is getting reloaded to see another batch of storms move in. this is a look at the satellite image you. can see this cloud cover here here. you see that clearing. that allows the surface to heat up and gives us the potential to explode again and that's what we're watching. two tornado watch boxes we're watching ruth now. one in north carolina, one here out across parts of southern mississippi, both or these expire at 9:00 p.m. local time but these storms here so far across parts of southern mississippi and in toward the panhandle of florida, they all have hail and wind. i think in the next hour we'll see some of these begin to get the rotation, turn into tornadoes and then we have a very rough night ahea
