LEXINGTON, Ky. The death toll from a series of weekend tornadoes in Kentucky stood at 50 by late Sunday but remained unclear in some parts of the state. By nightfall, new reports showed the number of dead and missing at a destroyed Mayfield candle factory was much lower than initially feared.
Search efforts at an Amazon facility in Illinois where at least six people died in a tornado were expected to take several days, but authorities said they did not expect to find additional survivors.
