Severe Storm Threat Persists Across Central U.S., Hail Possible in Texas
Severe weather continues to impact the central U.S., with lingering storms expected from Texas to the Great Lakes. The Storm Prediction Center has issued a slight risk (Level 2 out of 5) for areas including Rochester, Buffalo, Cleveland, Columbus, Indianapolis, Memphis, Little Rock, Dallas, and San Antonio. These storms are remnants of a system that produced 19 tornadoes on Monday in Kansas, Nebraska, and the Iowa-Missouri border. A squall line along a cold front is moving southeast, bringing localized wind gusts of 50-60 mph. In West Texas, isolated storms may produce large hail, with some hailstones potentially reaching the size of hen eggs. The tornado threat remains low due to the squall line's structure, which inhibits the formation of rotating supercells.
