<p>The trail of destruction was at least half a mile wide and overwhelmed rural Lee County’s coroners’ office, forcing it to call in help from the state.</p>
<p>“The devastation is incredible,” Lee County Sheriff Jay Jones said.</p>
<p>Drones flying overheard equipped with heat-seeking devices had scanned the area for survivors, but dangerous conditions halted the search late on Sunday, Mr Jones said.</p>
<p>The tornado was part of a powerful storm system that also slashed its way across parts of Georgia, South Carolina and Florida.</p>
<p>Mr Jones said the twister travelled straight down a county road in the rural community of Beauregard, reducing homes to slabs.</p>

<p>The National Weather Service confirmed late on Sunday that a tornado with at least an F3 rating caused the destruction in Alabama.</p>
<p>Although the statement did not give exact wind estimates, F3 storms typically are gauged at wind speeds of 158mph to 206mph.</p>
