(CNN) -- Severe storms ripped through parts of the South on Wednesday, cutting a path of destruction from Texas to Tennessee that left at least 12 people dead and hundreds of thousands without power, authorities said.
Even as officials were assessing damage across the region, forecasters said another powerful storm packing high winds and the possibility of tornadoes was bearing down on portions of Mississippi, Alabama, north Georgia and eastern Tennessee.
"The storms are just amazingly explosive and they're covering a very large area," said Greg Carbin with the Weather Service Storm Center in Norman, Oklahoma.
