Severe Weather Expected in Central U.S. with Tornado Risk
A significant increase in severe weather activity is anticipated across the central United States starting this weekend, with storms expected to persist for at least four consecutive days. According to The Washington Post, the severe weather will include damaging gusts, large hail, and a few tornadoes, with the peak of activity forecasted for Tuesday. The initial phase of this weather pattern began on Thursday in northern Kansas, where supercells produced hail larger than golf balls. The storms are driven by a seasonal clash of air masses and strong jet stream winds, which are conducive to storm rotation. The risk level varies, with marginally severe storms expected on Friday, and a greater chance of rotating storms on Saturday.
