Today's weather outlook

A significant spring storm system brings the threat of severe weather including tornadoes, damaging winds, large hail, and flash flooding for the second day in a row.

Those in line for the most severe storms are in Ohio, including Canton, Dayton, Columbus, and Cincinnati, where a moderate risk has been issued (as of Monday evening) - a level 4 out of 5 on the severity scale. However, at least an isolated severe storm risk extends from the lower Mississippi Valley through the Mid-Atlantic and lower Great Lakes.

Due to the spring nature of the overall storm system, the backend of the low pressure will include heavy snowfall in the Upper Midwest. Luckily, the rest of the U.S. is in line for more of a quiet Tuesday.
