PICHER, Oklahoma, May 11,2008 - Oklahoma Governor Brad Henry visits the area around Picher, Oklahoma, today after tornadoes raked the area, killing seven people there and at least 14 more in Neighboring Missouri.

Several people are missing and dozens of people are reported hurt, some seriously. An Oklahoma Highway Patrol lieutenant says some homes were leveled down to the foundation. A county emergency official says it looks like a bomb went off.

Saturday's tornado tore up a 20-block swath of the depressed mining town. It had already been designated a federal superfund site due to lead pollution, and over the years, many townspeople have taken federal buyouts and pulled up stakes.

Across the border in southwestern Missouri, at least 14 people were killed in severe storms that spawned tornadoes and high winds. Ten of the those died in a tornado that touched down near Seneca, about 20 miles from Picher.

The most recent death is in Georgia, where authorities say at least one person died after severe storms crossed the state. There are reports of downed trees and damaged homes and businesses in multiple counties.
