(CNN) — A dangerous, wide-reaching storm will affect the eastern seaboard after touching off several tornadoes, dropping baseball-sized hail and killing at least two people in the central US this weekend. A semi-truck driver was killed in Valparaiso, Indiana, early Sunday when powerful winds blew his vehicle over, according to CNN affiliate WLS. Winds in the area gusted to 80 mph at the time.
