Portions of the Midwest and Southeast recently slammed by a deadly barrage of powerful storms and flooding are continuing recovery efforts in the wake of the disaster.

A late-week storm is poised to bring a severe weather threat to areas still struggling to recover from last week's storms and ongoing flooding, while Old Man Winter continues to linger in parts of the Northeast.

Severe storms are expected to hit Alabama on Sunday, bringing the possibility of tornadoes, high winds, and hail. The National Weather Service has issued a level two threat for severe weather, indicating a significant risk of dangerous conditions.
