Another significant tornado outbreak will endanger many lives and property across the Arklatex and South later today. These are the same areas that were just hit by tornadoes Monday into Monday night.
The Little Rock, Ark., area is at risk again today after multiple tornadoes, including one large twister, just tore through Monday night.
"Tuesday and Wednesday will be particularly bad," warned AccuWeather.com Expert Senior Meteorologist Dan Kottlowski last Friday. That statement is still valid today.
Following Monday's deadly tornadoes, all signs are pointing toward another outbreak initiating across northeastern Texas and southwestern Arkansas later today.
The tornado danger will then shift eastward to the western Tennessee Valley by tonight, before extending from the eastern Tennessee Valley to the central Gulf Coast on Wednesday into Wednesday evening.
Tornadoes late today into tonight could take aim at Tyler, Texas, Broken Bow, Okla., Little Rock, Ark., Shreveport, La., Batesville, Miss., and Memphis, Tenn. Dallas will be a close call as well.
Some of these same cities are recovering from damaging storms and tornadoes which swept through late Monday.
Cities at risk for tornadoes come Wednesday include Meridian, Miss., Birmingham and Huntsville, Ala., and Nashville and Knoxville, Tenn.
There is concern that some of the tornadoes today into Wednesday will be strong (EF3 tornado ranking or higher) and long-tracking.
These types of tornadoes have the potential to produce damage similar to what was endured at St. Louis' Lambert Field on Friday evening or across North Carolina two Saturdays ago.
"People should review tornado safety guidelines and take any [severe thunderstorm or tornado] watches and warnings very seriously," stressed Kottlowski.
Those residents being threatened by the tornadoes at night should take extra precautions to ensure they do not sleep through vital tornado sirens or warnings.
Tornadoes are not the only concern today and Wednesday. Many of the strongest thunderstorms will unleash strong winds that may do more widespread damage than the tornadoes themselves.
Flooding downpours and hail could also be produced.
More gusty storms are expected to fire farther north and east as well, from the Ohio valley to parts of the Northeast today and Wednesday.
Once the tornado outbreak winds down on Wednesday night, residents from the southern Plains to the South will welcome a much needed quiet spell on Thursday into Friday.
