Severe Thunderstorms Threaten South And Ohio Valley On Thursday

Severe thunderstorms expected in the South and Ohio Valley.

Residents in the South are bracing themselves for another round of severe thunderstorms on Thursday. Following the powerful storms that occurred on Wednesday night, more inclement weather is expected to impact the region as the day progresses.

The storms are forecasted to move eastward, eventually making their way into the Atlantic Ocean by late afternoon. A Level 2 out of 5 risk for severe thunderstorms has been issued for areas spanning from Florida to far southern South Carolina. The primary threats associated with these storms include damaging winds, heavy rainfall, and the potential for isolated tornadoes.

Unlike the previous day, regions further north are also at risk for severe weather. A separate cluster of storms is anticipated to develop over the Ohio Valley from early afternoon to evening. These storms have the potential to be more intense compared to those in the southern areas.

A Level 3 out of 5 risk for severe thunderstorms has been identified in western West Virginia and eastern Ohio. Residents in these areas should be prepared for the possibility of multiple tornadoes, particularly during the late afternoon and evening hours. Damaging wind gusts and hail are also expected to accompany these storms.

The National Weather Service has issued warnings for elevated risks of severe weather, including thunderstorms, high winds, hail, and tornadoes. It is crucial for residents in the affected areas to stay informed about the weather conditions and take necessary precautions to ensure their safety.
