Weather watchers are warning Plains residents to prepare for severe weather, starting late Tuesday afternoon (April 26).
A “moderate” rating on NOAA’s Storm Prediction Center predicts strong tornadoes, softball-sized hailstones, and damaging winds for affected areas.
The severe thunderstorms are most likely to occur in “parts of the central and southern Plains, particularly in southern Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, north-central and central Texas. The threat may spread into western Missouri, Arkansas, and east, as well, into the evening,” according to The Weather Channel.
