Among the nine reported tornadoes that barreled through Kansas and Oklahoma was an EF2 tornado that struck Oklahoma's third-largest city, Norman.
At least 12 people were injured due to the Norman tornado overnight, but none of the injuries were critical and there were no reported fatalities, according to the city.
Drones are helping assess damage on Monday, Norman Police Chief Kevin Foster said.
Some roads have been shut down and two Norman elementary schools are closed, Foster said.
