More severe weather is expected in the Southern Plains Monday as residents in Oklahoma survey the destruction from tornado-spawning storms that injured at least 11 people and leveled homes over the weekend.

The storms caused "extensive damage to residential and commercial properties," and knocked down power lines, traffic lights, and trees throughout the area, the fire department said. By Sunday night, more than 17,000 people were without power — down from the nearly 82,000 people left in the dark Sunday morning, according to poweroutage.us.

Oklahoma has already seen some strong storms and tornado warnings amid another very significant severe weather day on Monday.

Severe storms and tornadoes have been pummelling Oklahoma, with cars being tossed around and winds ripping roofs off buildings in the middle of the night - and sending 11 people to hospital
