Severe weather continues to threaten the U.S.

The springtime severe weather season is ramping up with damaging winds, large hail and tornadoes in the forecast nearly every day this week in Kentucky, Mississippi and Tennessee.

Earlier this week, a storm system swept through parts of Oklahoma and Texas, dropping softball-sized hailstones near Dallas. A tornado was reported Sunday in Oklahoma, though no substantial damage was reported.

Today, parts of central Texas and southern Oklahoma are in the crosshairs for bad weather, while Wednesday’s forecast takes aim at east Texas, Arkansas, and Northwest Louisiana.

For those of you in these areas, this is a great time to make sure your emergency kits are ready, and you have plans incase a tornado is headed your way.

For others that may not be in the storms path, you should always be prepared because you never know what may be heading your way.
