A rare Christmas storm system forecasters called 'particularly dangerous' killed at least ten people and injured 40 others as it swept across the country Wednesday before giving way to unseasonably warm, wet, Spring-like weather marked by record-breaking temperatures in the central and eastern states on Christmas Eve.

Tornadoes touched down in Indiana and Mississippi, where six were killed. The rare springlike storms packing strong winds killed three more people in Tennessee.

A tree blew over onto a house in Arkansas, killing an 18-year-old woman identified as Michael Remus and trapping an 18-month-old child inside, authorities said. Rescuers pulled the toddler safely from the home.

Yeah, the grass is starting to come out of dormancy here which late next week might not be so good.
