The Storm Prediction Centre has issued a 'high risk' day warning for severe weather, as a formidable storm system threatens to unleash destructive tornadoes and large hail across several U.S. states. Missouri, Iowa, and Illinois faced severe conditions on Friday, and the system now targets southern states.
Saturday's forecast anticipates numerous significant tornadoes, some long-tracking and potentially violent, impacting areas in Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama. The alert is highlighted by using magenta to denote the highest risk zones on their color-coded maps.
Historically, the 'high risk' designation often predicates actual events. For instance, a similar alert in 2024 for Kansas and Oklahoma led to massive tornado outbreaks, causing significant destruction in towns like Barnsdall, Oklahoma, emphasizing the potential dangers of the current forecast.
