Just like in the springtime, fronts swing from the north, severe weather can spark. As we move into the middle of autumn, we will likely see more severe weather developing across the United States, especially the central and eastern regions. This week we are looking into a multi-day severe weather event that will from across the Plains into the South.

A winter storm is exiting the northern Rockies on Sunday and the weekend will end with a slight chance of severe storms from the Central Plains northward to the Midwest. As we look further into the setup, the chance is low for Sunday afternoon into the evening as the low-pressure system traveling over the area, pulling a cold front with it might not be mature enough to develop widespread severe weather, but there will be a few storms that you must watch.

The main risk for experiencing isolated storms, a couple of which could turn severe, are northeastern Kansas, western and central Iowa, far eastern South Dakota, and southeastern Minnesota. It will be a line of sporadic strong to severe storms that will be moving from west to east along the cold front, which extends from the low pressure traveling over the Dakotas.

The few severe storms that may develop could bring damaging winds, large hail, and the risk of a tornado or two.

The chance for severe storms will continue to affect parts of the southern Central Plains early on Monday. During daybreak on Monday, as the main system pulls the mentioned cold front, severe storms will be possible across Central Oklahoma and parts of western Texas above. But there will be more moisture arriving from north Mexico of the remnants of what was once Hurricane Roslyn, which made landfall on the west coast of Mexico on Sunday.

This moisture will feed a secondary front that will develop over Texas and move eastward. By the afternoon and evening, severe storms, more prolific, will be focused over much of eastern Texas, including Austin and San Antonio through the coast. Storms will develop damaging winds, hail and a few tornadoes are possible.
