Severe weather threat marches east

Days of severe weather will culminate in the threat of severe storms stretching from the Mid-Atlantic to central Florida.

It's been an active week for severe weather as a powerful spring storm marched east, carrying strong storms along with it across the Plains into the Ohio Valley and South. On the cold side, this system has been producing heavy late-season snow for the upper Midwest.
