At least one person is dead in Florida as powerful storms continue to pummel the South during a week of severe weather across the U.S. The sheriff's office in Leon County, Florida, says in a Facebook post Friday that a falling tree killed a woman inside her family's home in the Tallahassee area. Some of the strongest storms early Friday rolled through Tallahassee, toppling trees across the state’s capital city. Florida State University closed its campus amid damage. And in Mississippi’s capital of Jackson, authorities were asking residents to conserve and boil water after a power outage at one of its major water treatment plants.
