The chances of a "significant severe weather threat" in the South next week are continuing to grow just as the U.S. and other nations in the Northern Hemisphere usher in the start of meteorological spring.
The FOX Forecast Center is continuing to monitor two separate disturbances that are expected to move across the country, which could produce rounds of severe weather on Sunday, and then again Tuesday and Wednesday.
Sunday’s severe storm threat will take shape as a weak disturbance pushes out of the Rockies and into the Plains.
As that happens, forecasters say a dryline – a boundary separating a humid air mass from a much drier air mass – will develop and push through portions of Texas and Oklahoma, firing up thunderstorms as it does so.
Some of those thunderstorms could turn severe and produce hail and damaging wind gusts.
Specifics remain uncertain, but forecasters say multiple rounds of severe weather, including the development of supercell thunderstorms and an eventual squall line, could bring all severe weather threats, including strong tornadoes.
