A powerful storm is barreling toward the Central and Eastern United States, and it's packing a triple threat: tornadoes, heavy rain, and even snow. According to the latest updates from the National Weather Prediction Center and meteorologists tracking the system, Americans from Texas to the Midwest need to brace for impact this weekend. Here's what's coming and how you can stay safe.
This isn't your average spring shower. Experts say a cold front crashing into warm, moist air will spark a volatile weather event starting Friday, April 3, and lasting through Sunday, April 5.
Tornado Threat: Southern and Central states like Texas, Oklahoma, and Kansas are in the crosshairs for possible twisters. The atmosphere's primed for trouble, and residents should stay vigilant.
Flooding Risk: Heavy rain—up to 2 inches in just 24 hours—could swamp low-lying areas in the Central U.S., putting roads and homes at risk.
Snow in Spring: Up north, states like Minnesota and Wisconsin might see snow as cold air sweeps in. Yes, you read that right—snow in April.
The worst is expected to hit between Friday and Sunday, with Saturday shaping up as the peak. National Weather Prediction Center warns the storm's path is still evolving, so keep your eyes on the forecast.
This storm could disrupt lives and livelihoods. Tornadoes threaten property and safety, flooding could snarl travel, and snow might catch northerners off guard. It's a wake-up call to get prepared now.
Southerners: Have a tornado plan ready—know where to take shelter fast.
Central Residents: Check your gutters and drains; flooding doesn't wait for an invitation.
Northerners: Dust off the snow shovels and stock up—winter's making a late cameo.
The National Weather Prediction Center calls this a “dynamic system” with serious potential, while Watchers News labels it a “multi-hazard event.” “This is not a drill,” analysts warn. “We're looking at real risks across multiple regions.”
Weather like this doesn't mess around. We'll keep you updated as the storm closes in. Tune in to Fox News for the latest, and don't get caught off guard this weekend.
