NBC News said, citing reports, that there were over 635 storms recorded over the weekend.

Dozens of these storms were tornadoes in Alabama, Arkansas, Missouri, Kansas and Mississippi.

There were also wildfires in Texas and Oklahoma.

Over 100 people in Oklahoma were injured and dozens more in Arkansas were wounded.

Steve Romero of Tylertown, Mississippi—about an hour and a half drive south of Jackson—told local CBS affiliate WJAX-TV of a tornado that destroyed their home on Saturday, “It was a bad dream come true.”

The outlet called the storms “unusual” given the severity of the weather.

Dakota Henderson of Wayne County, Missouri, said that he and other good samaritans helped to rescue people trapped in their homes Friday night after the state was hit with multiple tornadoes.

He said that they found five bodies scattered outside the ruins of his aunt’s home.

“It’s really disturbing for what happened to the people, the casualties last night,” he told the Associated Press.
