Three dead and dozens injured in Texas tornado

A deadly tornado has swept through a northern Texas town, killing three people and injuring dozens more.

Perryton, which is near the Oklahoma border, appears to be at the centre of an intense storm system that has carved its way through the South.

Surrounding areas are sending emergencies crews to assist the town, home to about 8,000 people.

At least 30 mobile homes took a "direct hit" from the tornado and were damaged or destroyed, said a local fire chief.

A further 75 people were taken to hospital, added Perryton Fire Chief Paul Dutcher.

A spokesperson for Ochiltree General Hospital told ABC News they are operating on generators amid widespread power outages.

The National Weather Service (NWS) reported the tornado touched down around 17:00 local time (23:00 BST) on Thursday.

It reported a total of seven tornado reports but said the risk of further severe storms over the next few days will diminish.

On Friday, storms across parts of Oklahoma and Kansas, as well as in parts of Arkansas, Mississippi and west Florida could bring large hail, damaging winds gusts and a few tornadoes.

By Saturday, that risk will be mainly centred over the Southern Plains, before lessening further into Sunday.
