There have been numerous colder-than-normal air masses in recent weeks pushing into the central and eastern US from Canada and also into the western US from the eastern Pacific Ocean. The continuing influx of these colder-than-normal air masses along with an active jet stream has led to numerous severe weather outbreaks in recent weeks. Indeed, severe weather is likely later today and tonight with a focus on the Upper Midwestern states of Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa and Illinois though some severe thunderstorm activity can extend all the way south and west to the south-central states of Texas and Oklahoma. The overall pattern that has produced these occasional cold air and severe weather outbreaks in the US looks quite likely to last at least into the first part of May with a risk next Monday and Tuesday in the nation’s mid-section.
