On this day in 1957, a tornado swept across the Kansas City suburbs, killing 45 people as it traveled 71 miles. A check picked up by the tornado was found in Iowa, 165 miles away.

The WeatherRadar is showing a new storm system moving out of the Rockies organizing over the north-central Plains and into the Midwest. This will be the location for today's severe storms, generally from northeastern Colorado eastward into the Upper Midwest. Damaging winds will be the biggest threat.
