Evening Buzz: Deadly Storms Hit the South

It's been a deadly evening for storms across the deep south. There are at least 25 confirmed deaths alone in Alabama due to severe storms and tornadoes, according to the state’s emergency management director.

A major storm hit Tuscaloosa, Alabama, knocking down trees, ripping off roofs and reportedly trapping people in their homes.

Farther north, in the town of Cullman, it's believed a tornado hit, ripping off the roof of the courthouse and damaging the hospital. A natural gas line has also ruptured.

The line of storms is heading east. A tornado watch is in effect for Atlanta, Georgia through 2 a.m. eastern.

We'll get a live report on the dangerous storm system from CNN meteorologist Chad Myers.

We also have new developments on the release of President Obama's original long-form birth certificate. The White House released the document this morning, hoping to put an end to the false rumors he was not born in the United States.

"We're not going to be able to solve our problems if we get distracted by sideshows and carnival barkers," said President Obama at a press conference this morning.

"We do not have time for this kind of silliness. We've got better stuff to do. I've got better stuff to do," he said.

The long-form birth certificate is proof the president was born at Honolulu's Kapiolani Hospital on August 4, 1961. 'Birthers' have insisted Obama was born overseas and shouldn't be eligible to be president. They said the legally binding, shorter "certification of live birth" that the president released in 2008 wasn't full-proof he was born in the U.S. However, the shorter form is given to everyone born in Hawaii and is used to get driver's licenses and even passports.

Our 360° investigation this week showed no facts to back up the 'birther' claims. We sent a team to Hawaii to find the facts. Every former and current state official we spoke with said President Obama was in fact born in Hawaii.

Billionare real estate mogul, reality television star and ‘birther’ Donald Trump is taking credit for the release of the long-form birth certificate.

"I've accomplished something nobody else was able to accomplish," Trump said. "I'd want to look at (the birth certificate), but I hope it's true so that we can get on to much more important matters."

Trump talked with CNN's John King. We'll have part of that fiery interview for you tonight on AC360 °.

Will this be the end of the 'birther' movement? Don't hold your breath. We'll talk about that and more with Andrew Card, former Chief of Staff under President George W. Bush and Democratic Strategist and CNN Political Contributor Paul Begala.

And, Anderson will be reporting live from London on preparations for Friday's royal wedding. A rehearsal took place today at Westminster Abby. We'll give you the inside story on Prince William and Kate Middleton’s wedding day will be like. It won't be entirely old-school tradition.

We'll also look at Prince Harry's path from "wild child" to best man.

Join us for these stories and much more starting at 10 p.m. ET on CNN.
