Weekend severe weather threat brews for millions in Ozarks, Mississippi Valley
A brewing cross-country storm that’s expected to gather strength as it moves into the Plains and Mississippi Valley could trigger a potentially dangerous severe weather threat for millions of people across the region this weekend.
NOAA’s Storm Prediction Center placed an area extending from northeastern Texas to southern Illinois in a Level 2 threat on its 5-point severe thunderstorm risk scale on Saturday.
This cross-country storm first moved onshore along the West Coast on Tuesday, bringing flooding rain that prompted evacuations in Southern California and the first Severe Thunderstorm Watch for Los Angeles in more than 17 years.
