LEEDS, Ala. — A possible tornado passed through central Alabama on Thursday night as a severe storm toppled trees and left thousands of people without power.

The storm is a part of a larger storm projected to hit the Northeast near the end of this week. New York will experience a variety of inclement weather due to Winter Storm Miles.
