Severe spring storms threaten the U.S.

The risk will increase toward the second half of the work week, especially in the southern and central Plains, where a Level 2 risk of 5 is expected according to the NOAA Storm Prediction Center.

Unlike previous weather outbreaks, Thursday’s setup features an upper-level disturbance that will move into the southwest.

Due to this, an area of ​​low pressure will form on the surface that will fuel the development of showers and thunderstorms.

Thursday’s severe weather threat extends from south-central Nebraska to northwestern Texas, through central Kansas and western Oklahoma.

Storms could hit several states

Cities such as Hays, Dodge City, and Wichita in Kansas; Woodward, Oklahoma and Lubbock, Texas will be at risk, with the possibility of supercell storms capable of producing large hail, gusts of wind, damaging storms and even tornadoes.

On Friday, the threat will move to the Missouri Valley and Plains, affecting eight states at a Level 2 risk out of 5, including major cities such as Dallas, Oklahoma City, Kansas City and Des Moines.

Thunderstorms are expected to generate large hail and damaging wind gusts, with a tornado threat that could be greater than expected on Thursday.

However, changes to the forecast are expected as computer forecasting models continue to analyze data, according to Fox Weather.
