 Multiple areas across Mindanao will encounter overcast conditions along with precipitation due to the influence of the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ), as per PAGASA’s initial forecast released early Saturday morning.
</p>
<p>
 The Davao Region, SOCCSKSARGEN, Zamboanga Peninsula, Basilan, Sulu, and Tawi-Tawi regions can expect overcast conditions accompanied by intermittent precipitation and electrical storms as a result of the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ). These weather patterns may lead to sudden flooding or mudslides.
</p>
<p>
 Partially cloudy to overcast conditions with scattered mild showers are anticipated in Batanes and Babuyan Islands because of the northeasterly breeze.
</p>
<p>
 Partly cloudy to overcast conditions with scattered rain showers or thunderstorms are expected across Metro Manila and the remainder of the nation due to the influence of easterlies.
</p>
<p>
 In the extreme northern part of Luzon, expect moderate to strong winds along with moderate to rough coastal waters. The remaining areas across the nation should anticipate light to moderate winds and slight to moderate sea conditions near the coasts.

<p>
 Here’s why, from weather.com on camera meteorologist
 Danielle Banks
 :
</p>
<p>
 Unfortunately, West Virginia faces a lot of severe weather at the moment. For tonight going into early tomorrow, some storms could produce damaging winds, large hail and perhaps a tornado or two. Those close to the border of southeastern Ohio could see damaging winds in excess of 75 mph. Tomorrow, there are similar threats, but the
 Storm Prediction Center
 is quick to point out that the exact location of the threats remains uncertain at this time.

 (06:28 p.m. EDT) Tornadoes Can Hit Anywhere, Anytime
</h2>
<p>
 From weather.com with TV meteorologists
 Danielle Banks
 :
</p>
<p>
 Tornadoes show no preference when it comes to striking rural regions or urban centers. However, these whirlwinds tend to gain a reputation for frequently affecting less dense areas due to their vast expanses of open space. Despite looking like small dots from an aerial view, heavily inhabited metropolitan areas remain just as susceptible to tornado damage. Remember, tornadoes are natural phenomena capable of occurring at any location.

 (05:25 p.m. EDT) Just Because You Don’t See A Tornado Doesn’t Mean There Isn’t One
</h2>
<p>
 From weather.com on camera meteorologist
 Danielle Banks
 :
</p>
<p>
 You need to stay aware of the possibility of damaging winds even if you do not “see” a tornado. Tornadoes may appear almost transparent until they form a condensation funnel made up of water droplets, plus other dust and debris, which makes them easier to spot.

 (05:05 p.m. EDT) Two-Inch Hail and Strong Winds Reported in Springfield, Illinois
</h2>
<p>
 From the senior digital meteorologist at weather.com
 Jonathan Erdman
 :
</p>
<p>
 We might observe some hail damage, particularly to cars, in certain sections of Springfield, Illinois. Approximately 45 minutes ago, hail up to 2 inches in diameter was recorded in the region, accompanied by wind speeds exceeding 50 mph.
</p>
<h2>
 (04:59 p.m. EDT) Portions of Illinois Are Being Impacted for the Second Time This Afternoon
</h2>
<p>
 Severe storms are moving through a part of central Illinois already hit once today. A wind gust estimated at 70 to 75 mph was reported near Elkhart, which is just about 10 miles southeast of Lincoln, where damage to businesses and vehicles was reported earlier.

<h2>
 (04:45 p.m. EDT) Tornado Watch Versus Tornado Warning: Know The Difference
</h2>
<p>
 From weather.com on camera meteorologist
 Danielle Banks
 :
</p>
<p>
 A tornado watch is issued when a tornado is possible. That’s your heads up to get prepared and have a plan in place in case you need to seek shelter. Watches are issued by the Storm Prediction Center where tornadoes may occur and normally cover numerous counties within a state or states.
</p>
<p>
 However, a tornado warning means that a tornado has been either radar-indicated or sighted by a trained spotter. It could also mean that a tornado is highly likely and you need to seek shelter immediately because there is immediate danger to lives and property. Tornado warnings are issued by your local NWS office.
</p>
<h2>
 (04:31 p.m. EDT) Likely Tornado In Southern Missouri
</h2>
<p>
 From weather.com digital meteorologist
 Jonathan Belles
 :
</p>
<p>
 There was likely a tornado near South Fork, Missouri, just a bit ago. The radar signal is messy, but there was some signal for debris for a time.
</p>
<h2>
 (04:15 p.m. EDT) Roads Closed In Kalamazoo, Michigan
</h2>
<p>
 Heavy rain and flooding shut down several roads in Kalamazoo, Michigan.
</p>
<p>
 From the Kalamazoo County Sheriff’s Office via social media: “Use caution and anticipate water over the road in many low-lying areas.  Do NOT attempt to drive through water... As many motorists are currently finding out, it can be far deeper than expected. If you encounter water, turn around and seek higher routes.”

 (03:59 p.m. EDT) Latest Tornado Watch A ‘Particularly Dangerous Situation’
</h2>
<p>
 From weather.com senior digital meteorologist
 Jonathan Erdman
 :
</p>
<p>
 A tornado watch has just been issued for parts of the Mississippi Valley, including eastern Arkansas, northern Mississippi, southeastern Missouri, western Tennessee, western Kentucky, southern Illinois and extreme southwestern Indiana until midnight CDT.
</p>
<p>
 This isn’t a typical tornado watch. NOAA’s Storm Prediction Center has deemed this a “
 particularly dangerous situation
 ” (PDS). Essentially, it’s the highest level of tornado watch, in rare situations in which long-track, intense tornadoes are expected. Therefore, if you’re in this watch, pay very close attention to the weather conditions and take shelter immediately if you receive a warning.

<p>
 We’re going to be mainly dealing with a squall line with some embedded tornadoes this afternoon through evening.
</p>
<p>
 We’re just starting to get into the slight risk area in Arkansas and Missouri so we’ve got several hours of ramp up to go.

</p>
<p>
 Local resident Ethan Hoinacki, who shot some of the images, shared this with me via social media: “At around 10 a.m., I was at home — about 3 miles west of Lincoln, out in the country — when the sky to the northwest turned extremely dark. Within minutes, leaves and loose debris started swirling upward, almost like they were being pulled into the sky. It didn’t last long, but it was intense while it did … Once the storm moved on, I headed into town. I own a coffee shop, bakery, and some real estate in Lincoln, so I wanted to check on everything. Most of the west side of town was without power, and emergency crews were already on the scene … Grateful that no one I know was hurt, and thankful for the quick response from our local first responders. Definitely one of those days that reminds you how fast the weather can change.

<h2>
 (02:13 p.m. EDT) Beware The Danger Of Falling Trees
</h2>
<p>
 Falling trees are another
 underrated danger
 When dealing with tempestuous weather conditions, although there isn’t an all-encompassing registry of fatalities and wounds caused by toppled trees, the National Weather Service monitors incidents involving casualties linked to high winds, which often result in fallen trees.
</p>
<p>
 The wind was held responsible for 71 fatalities across the nation and led to over 210 injuries in 2023, according to the latest data available in the National Weather Service database.
</p>
<p>
 According to the NWS, the 10-year yearly average for wind-related fatalities stands at 57.

 And at the same time, a flash flood warning is issued as this scenario unfolds. One advises you to head for the lowest level of your house, whereas the other recommends seeking elevated terrain. What should be your ideal course of action then?
</p>
<p>
 Based on information from digital meteorologist at weather.com
 Jonathan Belles
 , who
 wrote an article
 In 2018 regarding this specific subject:
</p>
<p>
 Provided that flooding doesn’t pose an immediate danger – such as water rapidly entering or nearing your residence – you ought to relocate to the innermost room at the bottom floor of your structure.
</p>
<p>
 In case flooding continues, you ought to move to the innermost room located at the bottom-most floor within your house where water has not reached.
</p>
<p>
 As usual, you should never remain in a mobile home when severe weather is approaching.
</p>
<p>
 Make certain to reach a decision promptly once a warning is released since time generally becomes scarce. Keep in mind that your choice might differ from your neighbor’s, yet both could still be accurate based on each of your circumstances.

 Even as tornadoes and significant flooding dominate the news, destructive hail poses another considerable danger. This risk is especially pertinent in northern Texas and southern Oklahoma starting early Thursday morning, with potential further occurrences on Friday and Saturday. The Dallas-Fort Worth region, known for frequent springtime hail storms, falls within this affected zone. For those located in these regions who get alerted about severe thunderstorms in the coming days, whenever feasible, ensure your vehicles are parked inside garages or under sheltered areas.

 (11:43 a.m. EDT) Why Wind Can Be The Most Dangerous Part Of A Storm
</h2>
<p>
 Severe thunderstorm winds are no joke—they account for 70% of all severe weather reports and can be just as destructive as a tornado. These winds can snap tree limbs, knock out power, and even send objects crashing through homes or cars.
</p>
<p>
 In some extreme cases, thunderstorms can spawn a
 derecho
 , a long-lived wind storm with gusts over 100 miles per hour.

 (11:35 a.m. EDT) Hoosier Hail, Winds
</h2>
<p>
 From weather.com senior meteorologist
 Jonathan Erdman
 :
</p>
<p>
 This morning, we experienced intense thunderstorms stretching as far north as sections of Indiana and Ohio. Larger hailstones, comparable in size to quarters, along with fallen trees and disrupted power lines, have been noted in the Fort Wayne metropolitan region within Indiana early today. Additionally, several instances of hail have been documented in northwest Ohio. Such occurrences typically arise in the mornings when warm, moist air moves northward during extreme weather conditions.

<h2>
 (11:26 a.m. EDT) Key Information About Squall Lines
</h2>
<p>
 A storm system stretching across a large part of the Midwest has caused multiple severe weather incidents early today, making it an opportune moment to emphasize why such forms of thunderstorms can pose significant risks.
</p>
<div>
 <span data-embed-id="cfc5e8c6a2194a8ca8cfd24a8dd66730" data-embed-type="social-auto">
 </span>
</div>
<p>
 Squall lines are swift-moving fronts of thunderstorms that can generate powerful gusts, heavy downpours, and occasional twisters. These systems extend over vast distances—often reaching several hundred miles—but remain relatively narrow at around 10 to 20 miles across. On radar imagery, they typically show up as aggressive, arc-like patterns. Should such a front persist and intensify sufficiently, it becomes classified as a derecho—a weather event known for causing damage comparable to hurricanes. Upon spotting an incoming squall line, prepare yourself for strong gales, relentless precipitation, and constant electrical discharges.

 (10:49 a.m. EDT) We Recently Concluded an Extremely Busy Month
</h2>
<p>
 From weather.com senior meteorologist
 Jonathan Erdman
 :
</p>
<p>
 It appears more probable than ever that March could conclude with upwards of 200 tornadoes for this year after all data has been confirmed. This phenomenon last occurred in recorded history back in 1950, where the number stood at an unprecedented 234 tornadoes across the country during March 2022.
</p>
<p>
 The event occurred once more in 2023, recording a total of 208 tornadoes.
</p>
<p>
 The increased detection of less intense tornadoes because of advanced technology nowadays surely contributes to this phenomenon. However, this marks the third time in the last four Marches that we've seen at least twice the usual number of tornadoes for March. This frequency is usually more common during April.

<p>
 According to Chris Dolce, a senior meteorologist from weather.com:
</p>
<p>
 Currently, a squall line featuring intense to severe thunderstorms extends from Missouri through eastern Oklahoma into northwest Arkansas early this morning. The primary danger comes from damaging wind gusts; however, sporadic tornadoes may also occur. This was evident earlier today when a confirmed tornado touched down just north of Tulsa, resulting in roof and tree damages around Owasso.

 From weather.com digital meteorologist
 Jonathan Belles
 :
</p>
<p>
 What sets apart this particular storm system is that it’s anticipated to collide with a developing heat dome along the U.S. East Coast. The presence of this heat dome will cause the storm system to decelerate and stretch out, ultimately halting its progress across the Ohio Valley region. As a result, heavy rains could pour down over an area extending from Oklahoma to Indiana. By the time everything settles, up to 10 to 15 inches of precipitation may accumulate around where the Ohio River meets the Mississippi.

 Posibles inundaciones repentinamente letales, tornados de alto grado y granizos del tamaño de bolas de béisbol podrían impactar áreas en el centro-norte y sureste de Estados Unidos durante el miércoles. Esto ocurre mientras las poderosas tormentas que avanza desde oeste del país aumentan su intensidad según lo alertado por los especialistas en pronóstico meteorológico.
</p>
<p xmlns="http://iptc.org/std/NITF/2006-10-18/">
 El miércoles por la mañana había alertas de tormentas severas cercanas a las urbes de Joplin y Columbia en Misuri, marcando solo el comienzo de lo que los especialistas climáticos anticipaban como un período más crítico de condiciones atmosféricas agresivas durante esa jornada. Esto ocurriría mientras el calor diario interactuaba con una atmósfera inestable, provisto además de intensos cambios de dirección del viento y gran cantidad de humedad proveniente del Golfo de México (también conocido como Golfón de Estados Unidos) dirigiéndose al corazón del país.
</p>
<p xmlns="http://iptc.org/std/NITF/2006-10-18/">
 El fuerte sistema de tormentas generará "inundaciones repentinamente graves y posiblemente fatales" a partir del miércoles, y estas condiciones se mantendrán durante todos los días hasta el sábado, informó el Servicio Meteorológico Nacional.
</p>
<p xmlns="http://iptc.org/std/NITF/2006-10-18/">
 Es probable que se acumulen hasta 30 centímetros (1 pie) de precipitaciones en los próximos cuatro días, según lo advirtió el servicio meteorológico en uno de sus avisos sobre inundaciones. El aguacero continuo "es un fenómeno que puede suceder solo una vez cada veinte años o incluso menos frecuentemente", mencionaron. Se esperan registros pluviales sin precedentes y consecuentes efectos significativos.
</p>
<p xmlns="http://iptc.org/std/NITF/2006-10-18/">
 Las preocupaciones sobre inundaciones aparecen mientras que los habitantes de ciertas áreas de Michigan continúan recuperándose después de haber sido golpeados por una tormenta de hielo durante el fin de semana pasado.
</p>
Las crecidas del agua pueden anegar poblados e incluso llevarse vehículos.
<p xmlns="http://iptc.org/std/NITF/2006-10-18/">
 Se anticiparon tormentas eléctricas acompañadas de varias oleadas de precipitación fuerte en regiones como Texas, la cuenca baja del río Misisipí y el valle del Ohilio desde mitad de semana hasta el sábado. Los especialistas en clima alertaron sobre la posibilidad de que estas tormentas se repitan por el mismo trayecto, lo cual podría generar aguaceros copiosos e inundaciones súbitas extremadamente peligrosas, incluso suficientemente potentes para llevarse vehículos consigo.
</p>
<p xmlns="http://iptc.org/std/NITF/2006-10-18/">
 Se predijo una precipitación acumulada de hasta 38 centímetros (15 pulgadas) para los siguientes siete días en el noroeste de Arkansas, el suroeste de Missouri, el este de Kentucky y algunas áreas del sur de Illinois e Indiana, informó el servicio meteorológico.
</p>
<p xmlns="http://iptc.org/std/NITF/2006-10-18/">
 "Podríamos recibir aproximadamente dos meses de precipitaciones en solo unos cuantos días", señaló Thomas Jones, meteorólogo del servicio meteorológico en Little Rock, Arkansas, el lunes.
</p>
<p xmlns="http://iptc.org/std/NITF/2006-10-18/">
 Porciones del estado de Arkansas, la parte occidental de Tennessee, el suroeste de Kentucky y el extremo sur de Indiana enfrentaban un peligro particularmente elevado de inundaciones según informó el Servicio Meteorológico.
</p>
Los tornados se han detectado en Kansas y es posible que ocurran más.
<p xmlns="http://iptc.org/std/NITF/2006-10-18/">
 Al menos un tornado se detectó el martes por la tarde en Kansas. "Busquen refugio de manera inmediata", alertó la oficina del servicio meteorológico en Wichita para los habitantes en la plataforma X.
</p>
<p xmlns="http://iptc.org/std/NITF/2006-10-18/">
 No se registraron víctimas del tornado que azotó Kansas. Además, el miércoles se activaron alertas de torbellinos en Misuri; sin embargo, no se presentaron denuncias iniciales sobre destrozos ni personas lesionadas debido a estas tormentas.
</p>
<p xmlns="http://iptc.org/std/NITF/2006-10-18/">
 Además de los tornados, se anticipaba que habría vientos intensos con rachas de hasta 80 kilómetros por hora (50 millas por hora) en amplias áreas del noroeste del territorio nacional.
</p>
<p xmlns="http://iptc.org/std/NITF/2006-10-18/">
 La sombría predicción llega aproximadamente dos años después del día en que un tornado EF-3 golpeó Little Rock, Arkansas. Aunque nadie perdió la vida, este tornado provocó extensivos daños en barrios y comercios que aún están siendo restaurados hasta el presente.
</p>
<p xmlns="http://iptc.org/std/NITF/2006-10-18/">
 Más de 90 millones de individuos están expuestos a condiciones climáticas extremas en un vasto territorio que abarca desde Texas hasta Minnesota y Maine, indica el Centro Nacional de Predicción de Tormentas ubicado en Oklahoma.
</p>
Tormentas tornádicas intensas y prolongadas parecen posibles en la zona de alto peligro.
<p xmlns="http://iptc.org/std/NITF/2006-10-18/">
 Alrededor de 2,5 millones de individuos están ubicados dentro de un territorio designado como "de alto peligro", una categorización poco común. Esta región considerada bajo amenaza significativa debido al clima extremo abarcaba porciones del oeste de Tennessee, que comprende Memphis; el nordeste de Arkansas; la parte suroeste de Missouri; así como sectores del oeste de Kentucky y el sur de Illinois, según lo informado este miércoles.
</p>
<p xmlns="http://iptc.org/std/NITF/2006-10-18/">
 Se espera un aumento significativo de tornados este miércoles y es probable que se produzcan "varios tornadores prolongados con una clasificación EF3 o superior", según informó el Centro de Predicción de Tormentas. Estos tornados son considerados entre los más poderosos en la Escala Fujita Mejorada, usada para determinar su fuerza.
</p>
<p xmlns="http://iptc.org/std/NITF/2006-10-18/">
 Un nivel de riesgo levemente inferior al severo para el clima se prevé para la jornada del miércoles en una zona que abarca Chicago, Indianápolis, Saint Louis, Louisville en Kentucky, y Little Rock en Arkansas. Además, las ciudades de Dallas, Detroit, Milwaukee y Nashville en Tennessee también enfrentan este riesgo reducido pero significativo.
</p>
Un temporal invernal golpea el área central-norte de la nación.
<p xmlns="http://iptc.org/std/NITF/2006-10-18/">
 En Michigan, los equipos trabajaban para reinstalar la energía eléctrica el martes luego de que un temporal de granizo durante el fin de semana anterior causara la caída de árboles y postes de electricidad. El miércoles por la mañana, más de 135.000 usuarios carecían aún de suministro eléctrico en el área septentrional de Michigan; además, aproximadamente 11.000 personas adicionales permanecían sin luz en Wisconsin, según informó PowerOutage.us, sitio web dedicado al seguimiento nacional de interrupciones del servicio.
</p>
<p xmlns="http://iptc.org/std/NITF/2006-10-18/">
 Varias escuelas ubicadas en diferentes condados de la parte inferior del guante de Michigan decidieron cerrar sus puertas mientras que los oficiales emplearon motosierras para limpiar las vías públicas, al tiempo que los automovilistas esperaban turnos en las gasolineras. Además, se preveía que llegaría más niebla congelada e hielo líquido, lo cual podría seguir manteniendo ciertos tramos de caminos peligrosos desde este momento hasta mañana en áreas de Michigan y también de Wisconsin según informó el Servicio Meteorológico Nacional.
</p>
<p xmlns="http://iptc.org/std/NITF/2006-10-18/">
 Se predijo una nevada fuerte e húmeda para continuar hasta el miércoles en Dakota del Este y algunas áreas de Minnesota.

Atmospheric River Threatens Devastating 1,000-Year Flood

Unknown disasters, flooding, meteorology, news, rainfall

<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1C8Qeb" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1C8Qeb.jpg"/>
<p>
 An
 atmospheric river taking aim at the Midwest
 and parts of the South could exceed the 500- to 1,000-year average for rainfall in the area, meteorologists warned.
</p>
<h2>
 Why It Matters
</h2>
<p>
 Atmospheric rivers are a "long, narrow region in the atmosphere—like rivers in the sky—that transport most of the water vapor outside of the tropics," according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
</p>
<p>
 The storms brought by atmospheric rivers
 are known for their heavy snow, heavy rain and strong winds
 . They more
 commonly affect the West Coast
 , particularly during the winter months.
</p>
<h2>
 What To Know
</h2>
<p>
 But a similar storm system will bring four months' worth of rain in a period of five days to a 1,000-mile swath in the central U.S.
</p>
<p>
 The incoming storm is a one-in-1,000-year event. An AccuWeather spokesperson told
 DIwida.Blog & News
 that floods like this have a 0.1 percent chance of happening in any given year.
</p>
<p>
 On Monday, AccuWeather published a report about the "conveyor belt of moisture," which is going to bring hours of heavy rain from Wednesday to Saturday night from Arkansas through the Mississippi Valley and into the Ohio Valley.
</p>
<p>
 "That moisture plume, known as an atmospheric river, will be tropical in nature and originate from the Caribbean," AccuWeather Senior Storm Warning Meteorologist William Clark said in the report. "Tropical moisture raises the risk of excessive rainfall."
</p>
<p>
 Occasionally, the precipitation intensity might surpass multiple inches within an hour, leading to swift flash floods. In certain regions, over twelve inches of rain could accumulate throughout the span of five days.
</p>
<p>
 Scott Homan, a senior meteorologist at AccuWeather, informed
 DIwida.Blog & News
 The weather patterns will make the storm stationary over the area, resulting in multiple episodes of intense rain showers. He cautioned that “substantial flooding” will affect southeastern Missouri, southern Indiana, Illinois, Kentucky, Tennessee, Arkansas, and northwestern Mississippi.
</p>
<p>
 Floodwaters can rapidly turn hazardous and potentially deadly as the influx of moisture fills up local rivers, creeks, and streams. According to AccuWeather, major rivers anticipated to experience notable increases in water levels encompass the Ohio, Wabash, White, St. Francis, Kentucky, and Tennessee Rivers.
</p>
<p>
 National Weather Service (NWS) offices across the region have already issued numerous flood watches ahead of the storm. Flood watches are in place for Ohio, West Virginia, Indiana, Kentucky, Illinois, Tennessee, Missouri, Arkansas, Mississippi and parts of Oklahoma and Texas.
</p>
<h2>
 What People Are Saying
</h2>
<p>
 <strong>
  Clark said in the AccuWeather report:
 </strong>
 "Should the amount of rain occur that we anticipate over the middle of the nation, it would exceed the 500 to 1,000-year average. Truly, the potential is there for a historic flash flooding event."
</p>
<p>
 <strong>
  The NWS office in Louisville, Kentucky:
 </strong>
 "This is expected to be a high end event with life-threatening flooding. Major flash flooding and river flooding will be possible. Rush to completion any flooding preparation by Wednesday."
</p>
<h2>
 What Happens Next
</h2>
<p>
 The storm is expected to bring excessive rainfall across the region by Wednesday night and the deluge could continue through Saturday.
</p>
<p>
 To best prepare, Homan said, people in the forecast area should ensure their cellphones are charged and that they have access to a radio in case power goes out. He urged them to heed any warnings or evacuation orders and take shelter as the storm progresses.

  <p>
   Strong gusts paired with intense localized snowfall resulted in poor visibility across key roadways. The highway numbered 6, located north of route 403, was shut down on Wednesday because of treacherous snowy and icy conditions. These circumstances caused numerous incidents including transport trucks skidding and cars becoming stuck.

  <p>
   The ice and snow moved out of the Golden Horseshoe area Wednesday afternoon but will remain as an evening and overnight risk through eastern Ontario, including the Ottawa region.
  </p>
  <p>
   The primary focus will be on the potential for an intense thunderstorm overnight in southern Ontario, which could result in a heightened risk of local flooding.

  </p>
  <p>
   In the evening, the wind direction will shift from northeasterly to southerly, with powerful gusts potentially reaching speeds of 50-70 km/h, and possibly climbing as high as 80 km/h along open coastal areas.
  </p>
  <p>
   Powerful wind bursts and torrential downpours represent the main hazards during intense thunderstorms. Additionally, there is a slight possibility of tornadoes forming in southwest Ontario if sufficient atmospheric energy travels over from Michigan.

  </p>
  <p>
   30-60 millimeters of heavy rain are expected where the most intense storms will form, stretching from Windsor to Hamilton.

 "Severe weather conditions threatening damage are expected from the Mississippi and Ohio River basins through the Southeast beginning this weekend, potentially bringing destructive winds, sizable hail, and tornadoes," stated
 Weather.com meteorologist Sara Tonks
 In an online prediction, wintry conditions are expected to affect parts of the northern region over the upcoming weekend, according to meteorologists.
</p>
<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/slideshow/AA1ALgrb" data-reference="slideshow"/>
<p>
 So far this month, we've had three distinct severe weather events resulting in over 220 tornadoes along with almost 1,900 additional reports of incidents such as strong winds and hail.

 Relative to what was recorded in March 2024, we're seeing roughly twice as many significant weather events, including almost quadruple the number of tornadoes," stated Alex Sosnowski, an AccuWeather senior meteorologist. "Just the single storm system from March 14-16 produced more tornadoes and general severe weather occurrences than were documented throughout the entirety of March 2024.

 The storms on Saturday will involve snow and ice.
</h2>
<p>
 Although the danger on Saturday will be low, some intense thunderstorms might develop over the Mississippi Valley region. Areas potentially affected by severe weather conditions on Saturday encompass St. Louis, Memphis, Louisville, and Nashville.
 AccuWeather
 said.
</p>
<p>
 Sosnowski stated that further north, within the storm’s northerly sector—similar to numerous other such events this month—a band of snow and ice will form. Wintry precipitation could stretch from central Colorado and eastern Wyoming all the way to sections of the Dakotas, Minnesota, as well as the upper portions of Wisconsin, Michigan, New York, and New England.
</p>
<p>
 Multiple hours of freezing rain could result in an accumulation of ice from late Friday night through early Saturday across sections of northern Minnesota extending eastward into parts of Vermont and Massachusetts, he noted.
</p>
<h2 class="presto-h2 wp-block-heading">
 A significant severe weather event may occur on Sunday.
</h2>
<p>
 It seems probable that Sunday will see the peak activity for significant thunderstorms over this upcoming weekend. The hazardous weather could impact large sections of the Mississippi, Ohio, and Tennessee River valleys, according to Tonks. Dozens of states might face an elevated risk of severe conditions on Sunday, AccuWeather forecasts suggest.
</p>
<p>
 On Sunday, all significant threats will come into play: "Early in the afternoon, intense and supercell thunderstorms are anticipated, along with the possibility of extremely large hail, destructive gusts, and a couple of twisters,"
 the Storm Prediction Center
 said.
</p>
<p>
 Places like Dallas, Indianapolis, and Columbus fall within the risk zone on Sunday.
</p>
<h2 class="presto-h2 wp-block-heading">
 Disorderly Monday predicted in weather outlook
</h2>
<p>
 On Monday, severe weather is expected to persist as it moves past the cold front across regions ranging from the Southeast to the middle Atlantic area. This could impact cities such as Atlanta; Charlotte and Raleigh in North Carolina; Jacksonville in Florida; Columbia in South Carolina; and Richmond in Virginia.
 Tonks said.
</p>
<p>
 She mentioned that potential severe storms might bring wind damage, significant hail, and even some tornado risks.

 In the meantime, another system ought to distribute rainfall across the Western region from the latter part of this weekend through early next week. This system will bring an area of rain along with high-altitude snow, which is expected to move into the West by Sunday-Monday. The affected areas may include parts of northern California stretching up towards the Pacific Northwest and possibly reaching as far as the northern Rocky Mountains early next week, according to forecasts.

Experts Warn: US Weather Forecasts to Deteriorate as Budget Cuts Reduce Balloon Launches

Unknown atmospheric sciences, meteorologists, meteorology, news, weather forecasts

<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1BrGPK" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1BrGPK.jpg"/>
<p>
 WASHINGTON (AP) — With massive job cuts, the National Weather Service is eliminating or reducing vital weather balloon launches in eight northern locations, which meteorologists and former agency leaders said will degrade the accuracy of forecasts just as severe weather season kicks in.
</p>
<p>
 The normally twice-daily launches of weather balloons in about 100 locations provide information that forecasters and computer models use to figure out what the weather will be and how dangerous it can get, so cutting back is a mistake, said eight different scientists, meteorologists and former top officials at National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration — the weather service's parent agency.
</p>
<p>
 The
 balloons soar 100,000 feet
 in the air with sensors called radiosondes hanging about 20 feet below them that measure temperature, dew point, humidity, barometric pressure, wind speed and direction.
</p>
<p>
 “The thing about weather balloons is that they give you information you can't get any other way,” said D. James Baker, a former NOAA chief during the Clinton administration. He had to cut spending in the agency during his tenure but he said he refused to cut observations such as weather balloons. “It's an absolutely essential piece of the forecasting system.”
</p>
<p>
 University of Oklahoma environment professor Renee McPherson said, “This frankly is just dangerous.”
</p>
<p>
 “Bad,” Ryan Maue, who was NOAA's chief scientist at the end of President Donald Trump's first term, wrote in an email. “We should not degrade our weather system by skipping balloon launches. Not only is this embarrassing for NOAA, the cessation of weather balloon launches will worsen America's weather forecasts.”
</p>
<p>
 Launches will be
 eliminated in Omaha, Nebraska, and Rapid City, South Dakota
 , “due to a lack of Weather Forecast Office (WFO) staffing,” the weather service said in a notice issued late Thursday. It also is cutting from
 twice daily to once daily launches i
 n Aberdeen, South Dakota; Grand Junction, Colorado; Green Bay, Wisconsin; Gaylord, Michigan; North Platte, Nebraska and Riverton, Wyoming.
</p>
<p>
 The Trump administration and its Department of Government Efficiency
 fired hundreds, likely more than 1,000, NOAA workers
 earlier this year. The government then sent out letters telling probationary employees let go that they will get paid, but should not report to work.
</p>
<p>
 Earlier this month, the agency had announced weather balloon cuts in
 Albany, New York and Gray, Maine,
 and in late February, it
 concluded launches in Kotzebue, Alaska
 That brings the total to 11 declared sites with decreased or discontinued balloon observations, representing approximately one out of every nine launch locations, including parts of the Pacific and Caribbean regions.
</p>
<p>
 According to an analysis of launch data by the Associated Press, NOAA reported that approximately one daily disruption in balloon launches occurred at regularly reporting weather stations between 2021 and 2024.
</p>
<p>
 Meteorologists Jeff Masters and Tomer Burg calculate that 14 of 83 U.S. balloon sites, or 17%, are doing partial or no launches. That includes two stations that aren't launching because of a helium shortage and a third that is hindered because of coastal erosion.
</p>
<p>
 “The more data we can feed into our weather models, the more accurate our forecasts, but I can’t speculate on the extent of future impacts,” weather service spokesperson Susan Buchanan said in an email.
</p>
<p>
 University at Albany meteorology professor Kristen Corbosiero looked at the map of launches Friday and said “wow, that is an empty area ... That's not great.”
</p>
<p>
 Corbosiero works in the building where the Albany weather service used to go to the roof to launch twice-daily weather balloons. It's now down to one at night, which she said it is worrisome heading into severe weather season.
</p>
<p>
 “For those of us east of the Rocky Mountains, this is probably the worst time of year,” said Oklahoma's McPherson. “It's the time of year that we have some of our largest tornado outbreaks, especially as we move into April and May.”
</p>
<p>
 Former National Weather Service Director Elbert “Joe” Friday said the weather balloons get “the detailed lower atmospheric level of temperature and humidity that can determine whether the atmosphere is going to be hot enough to set off severe storms and how intense they might be.”
</p>
<p>
 Satellites do a good job getting a big picture and ground measurements and radar show what's happening on the ground, but the weather balloons provide the key middle part of the forecasting puzzle — the atmosphere — where so much weather brews, several meteorologists said.
</p>
<p>
 All of the 10 announced reductions are in the northern part of the United States. That's about where the jet stream — which is a river of air that moves weather systems across the globe — is this time of year, so not having as many observations is especially problematic, McPherson and Corbosiero said.
</p>
<p>
 Weather balloons are also vital for helping forecast when and where it will rain, said Baker and another former NOAA chief, Rick Spinrad.
</p>
<p>
 The weather agency has been launching balloons regularly since the 1930s. During World War II, weather balloon launches in the Arctic helped America win the air battle over Europe with better forecasts for planes, former weather chief Friday said.
</p>
<p>
 It takes 90 minutes to an hour to fill a weather balloon with helium or hydrogen, get it fitted with a sensor, then ready it for launch making sure the radiosonde doesn't drag on the ground, said Friday, who recalled launching a balloon in Nome, Alaska with 30 mph winds and windchill of about 30 degrees below zero.
</p>
<p>
 Meteorologists then track the data for a couple hours before the balloon falls back to the ground for a total of about four of five hours work for one person, Friday said.
</p>
<p>
 “It's kind of fun to do,” Friday said on Friday.

<p>
 MANILA, Philippines — Rainy conditions are expected across the country on Saturday because of three different weather systems, as reported by the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration ( Pagasa).
</p>
<p>
 The northeastern monsoon known as amihan will primarily impact Luzon.
</p>
<p>
 Northeast winds will dominate various areas across Mindanao as the impact of the troughline will be felt in Visayas and Palawan.
</p>
<p>
 "Ang makapal na hangin ng northeast monsoon ay patuloy na nagdudulot ng epekto sa malawakangbahagi ng Luzon," wika ni weather specialist Benison Estareja.
</p>
<p>
 (The impact of a powerful northeast monsoon persists across much of Luzon.)
</p>
<p>
 "This will bring slightly cooler temperatures and light rain, particularly in the eastern and southern areas," he pointed out.
</p>
<p>
 It will introduce mildly cool temperatures accompanied by light rainfall, particularly in the eastern and southern areas.
</p>
<p>
 He highlighted that the easterly winds bring rain to a large part of Mindanao.
</p>
<p>
 (The trade winds are bringing rainfall to most areas of Mindanao.)
</p>
<p>
 "And above Palawan and Visayas, the amihan and easterlies converge, resulting in the continued formation of a shear line. This is the line where we experience heavy rainfall," he further explained.
</p>
<p>
 (Above Palawan and the Visayas region, the amihan and easterlies are meeting. Due to this convergence, a shear line continues to develop. It is along this line that intense rainfall is occurring.)
</p>
<p>
 <strong>

  The rainy conditions in Cebu caused by the shear line might continue through Sunday.
 </strong>
</p>
<p>
 Estareja also stated that no low-pressure area or tropical cyclone was observed within or beyond the nation's monitoring zone.
</p>
<p>
 He mentioned that no storm signal warning was issued for any of the nation’s coastal areas.

Rain Relief For Tamil Nadu: IMD Forecasts Showers In Chennai, 10 Other Districts

Unknown meteorology, news, rain, rainfall, weather forecasts

<p>
 Parts of Tamil Nadu, including Chennai, are set to experience rainfall on Saturday, bringing much-needed relief from the summer heat, according to the India Meteorological Department (IMD). However, despite the anticipated rainfall, high humidity levels combined with above-normal minimum temperatures by 2-4°C may cause discomfort.
</p>
<p>
 The forecast suggests light to moderate rainfall across Tamil Nadu, Puducherry, and Karaikal, with heavy showers expected in isolated locations, including Nilgiris, Coimbatore, Tiruppur, Theni, Dindigul, Erode, Krishnagiri, Dharmapuri, Tenkasi, and Kanyakumari. Thunderstorms and lightning may also occur in certain areas prompting the issuance of a yellow alert for districts expecting intense rainfall.
</p>
<p>
 The bulletin said: "Heavy rainfall is likely to occur at isolated places over Nilgiris, Coimbatore, Tiruppur, Theni, Dindigul, Erode, Krishnagiri, Dharmapuri, Tenkasi and Kanyakumari districts."

<p>
 In Chennai, residents can expect light to moderate rain coupled with thunderstorms in a few areas. It said, "Light/Moderate rain with thunderstorm and lightning is likely to occur in some areas."
</p>
<p>
 The maximum temperature will be 34-35°C while the minimum temperature will be 25-26°C.
</p>
<h3>
 Reason For Weather Change
</h3>
<p>
 The IMD report highlights that a cyclonic circulation over southwest Madhya Pradesh is extending down to South Interior Karnataka, influencing wind patterns and contributing to moisture buildup. Additionally, a trough in the easterlies extends from the Comorin area to South Tamil Nadu, bringing moisture-laden winds from the east, which are expected to trigger rainfall in the region.
</p>
<p>
 Meanwhile, the IMD has also warned that high humidity, coupled with persistently high temperatures, could lead to uncomfortable weather conditions in some parts of the state. Residents are advised to stay hydrated, avoid direct sun exposure, and stay updated with weather forecasts for further advisories.

<p>
 A yellow warning for rain will be activated across ten counties later, following the peak temperatures recorded throughout Ireland today, which were the highest this year.
</p>
<p>
 Some regions experienced temperatures reaching up to 18 degrees yesterday, with the peak temperature of 18.8 degrees recorded at Shannon Airport.
</p>
<p>
 Nonetheless, the weather conditions are expected to change later today as a rain alert becomes effective during the afternoon hours.
