Rescuers are racing to find survivors in the aftermath of a deadly storm system that barreled across parts of Georgia and Alabama. The system killed at least nine people and inflicted heavy damage on Selma, a flashpoint of the civil rights movement. A better picture of the damage was expected to emerge later in the day as authorities surveyed the scarred landscape. At least 35 possible tornado touchdowns were reported across several states. The National Weather Service was working to confirm the twisters. It said suspected tornado damage was reported in at least 14 counties in Alabama and five in Georgia.

U.S. air travel has returned mostly to normal, a day after a computer system that sends safety information to pilots broke down and grounded traffic from coast to coast. By early afternoon Thursday on the East Coast, only about 100 flights had been canceled and 1,700 delayed. Those figures are much lower than on Wednesday, when more than 1,300 flights were scrubbed and 11,000 delayed. The Federal Aviation Administration said a damaged database file appeared to have caused the outage in the safety-alert system. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg promised a thorough examination to avoid another major failure.

A large sinkhole formed early Thursday morning on State Route 92 in San Mateo County just west of the intersection of upper state Highway 35.
Storm-ravaged California is scrambling to clean up and repair widespread damage. A new storm entering the state Wednesday is expected to be limited to the north while the south gets a break. Crews are working to reopen roads closed by rockslides, swamped by flooding or smothered with mud. More than 10,000 people who were ordered out of seaside towns on the central coast were allowed to return home Tuesday. Yet thousands of people living near rain-swollen creeks and rivers remain under evacuation orders, including some 4,000 residents of Planada in the San Joaquin Valley, where neighborhoods were under water. Gov. Gavin Newsom says at least 17 people have died in storms since late December.
