More than 350 have been killed after cyclone Nargis swept through Myanmar. “We believe hundreds of people are dead," said Khin Maung Win on the Democratic Voice of Burma, a broadcast media group run by opposition expatriates. "The entire lower Burma is affected. In some areas, entire villages disappeared." Winds in excess of 200 km/h hit the country over the weekend tearing off roofs, uprooting trees and downing power lines [CNN / BBC / Al Jazeera].
More tornadoes have also swept through the US with Arkansas being the worst hit. At least 7 have died in the latest storms to hit parts of the continent [CNN].
