A significant severe weather event is forecasted to impact large portions of the United States, including the Midwest, South, and East Coast, starting this Monday and continuing into Tuesday, affecting 50 million Americans. Forecasters are warning of all modes of severe weather due to a powerful jet stream overtaking an unstable air mass, marking a hot start to April. The greatest tornado threat, including the potential for strong tornadoes, is expected farther north and northeast along the warm front, from the Ozarks into the Ohio Valley. Enhanced risks of severe weather have been identified across parts of the Ohio Valley and Central Appalachians, with wind damage and isolated large hail as primary concerns. In Texas, severe thunderstorms, large hail, and tornadoes are possible, impacting millions. The storm system, which began in California with thunderstorms, flooding, and heavy mountain snow, is moving eastward, threatening widespread hazardous weather across the central and eastern U.S. The National Weather Service has highlighted multiple waves of rain and potential severe storms, with colder conditions and possible snow following into midweek. There is now a significant threat of EF-2 or stronger tornadoes and baseball-sized hail across parts of the Central U.S.
