At least 26 people have been killed and forecasters predict more bad weather

A state of emergency has been declared for Mississippi as it grapples with the trail of tornado destruction that has killed at least 26 people.

Disaster relief efforts are pouring into Mississippi and Alabama, grappling with the 270-kilometre trail of destruction there.
