JACKSON (AP) — Another barrage of storms hit the southeast Thursday, causing a collision between a passenger train and a tree and sending at least one person to the hospital after lightning struck a home.
Flood warnings as well as tornado watches and warnings were in effect around the region.
In south Mississippi, an Amtrak train hit a tree the storm knocked onto the tracks south of McComb in Pike County.
