Tornado survivors face freezing temperatures, power outages

Tornadoes tore through the southeastern U.S. over the weekend, killing more than 20 people so far, though the death toll may rise as rescue workers comb through rubble. Cutting a path more than a mile wide and 24 miles long, the tornado was the deadliest in the U.S. in six years. William Brangham talks to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s Jeremy Redmon, reporting from Lee County, Alabama.
