Millions remain under threat
Officials in Kentucky said there had been 18 deaths while seven people were killed in Missouri, including five in the city of St Louis.
The Kentucky tornado struck Laurel County in the south-east of the state in the early hours of Saturday. Officials said they expected the death toll to rise.
Missouri officials said 5,000 buildings had been damaged, roofs destroyed and power lines downed due to the tornado.
About 140,000 properties in Missouri and Kentucky were left without power as of Saturday afternoon. Officials in St Louis said the fire department was conducting house by house searches in the worst-affected areas.St Louis mayor Cara Spencer said in an update on Saturday that at least 38 people were reported injured in her area, largely from collapsed buildings and toppled trees.
Authorities in Kentucky said there were also severe injuries reported. The search is continuing in the damaged area for survivors, said Laurel County Sheriff John Root in a post on social media.
National Weather Service radar suggested the tornado touched down in Missouri shortly after 14:30 local time in the west of the city close to Forest Park home to St Louis Zoo and the site of the1904 Olympic Games.
St Louis Fire Department said three people had to be rescued after part of the nearby Centennial Christian Church collapsed. One of those people died.
A curfew was imposed from 21:00 to 06:00 local time in the two areas where most of the damage took place, to prevent injuries from debris and reduce the potential for looting.
St Louis mayor Spencer said: The loss of life and the destruction is truly, truly horrendous.
We're going to have a lot of work to do in the coming days. There is no doubt there, but tonight we are focused on saving lives and keeping people safe and allowing our community to grieve.
The US National Weather Service said tornadoes also hit neighbouring Illinois, with more severe weather conditions stretching eastwards to the Atlantic coast. On Saturday, it warned of few tornadoes that could hit northern Texas over the weekend as a result of strong to severe storms in the area.
The tornadoes struck an area of the US that is generally referred to as Tornado Alley, where tornadoes are most frequent. They typically occur in the months of May and June, though they could strike during other times of the year.
Kentucky has seen an average of five tornadoes each May since the year 2000, while Missouri has seen an average of 16.

NO Trump, NO FEMA Tornado Ravaged St. Louis Citys Mayor PLEADS For FED Assistance
No Trump, no FEMA Tornado ravaged citys mayor pleads for help BUT NO HELP
REUTERS 24 MAY 2025
At least 28 people across three states were killed when tornadoes struck Kentucky, Missouri, and Virginia on Friday, with a governor and a mayor calling them among the worst they've ever seen.
Unseen, however, has been any acknowledgment or support from Donald Trump or, according to reports, the Federal Emergency Management Agency
What we need right now is federal assistance, declared St. Louis, Missouri Mayor Cara Spencer on MSNBC, we need federal assistance.
This is where FEMA and the federal government has got to come in and help communities, Mayor Spencer urged. Our city cannot shoulder this alone. The State of Missouri cannot shoulder this alone. We need partners at the national level, at the federal level to step up and help.
Spencer explained, this is what the federal government is for. We need your help, we need the help of the broader community.
FEMA has not been on the ground we do not have confirmed assistance from FEMA at this point Spencer said. However, every other level of government has been on the ground with us, helping in every capacity possible. But when you have a disaster of this scale, eight miles of just pure destruction
This tornado didnt just touch down and leave, this tornado ripped through our community for a full eight miles in the city of St. Louis, and this is an area that has needed help, that we need investment, you know, our North St. Louis has been neglected for a long time, and we need the help of our partners here.
Spencer had called it one of the worst storms. She said that the devastation is truly heartbreaking and lets not forget people have lost their lives. We are continuing to make sure that we are identifying all those that are injured, in addition to the massive amount of property damage that has taken a huge toll.
Tornadoes were reported in three more states, bringing the total to six states and 26 tornadoes.
