Bernie Rayno breaks down the areas most at risk.
Transcript
00:00Severe weather returns Monday afternoon and Monday night from the Midwest toward the Plains.
00:06Damaging winds, very large hail, and there's going to be a few, if not several, tornadoes across Iowa and eastern
00:13and central Nebraska.
00:14Here are the ingredients. We begin with the warmth. Look at the surge of heat coming into the central plains.
00:20Meanwhile, you have cooler air near the lakes.
00:22That's a warm front that's going to be lifting north as you always look for tornadoes south of that warm
00:29front because you have directional winds here.
00:31But you have the warmth, and boy, you have the energy.
00:34A powerful jet stream coming across the northern Rockies will lift across Minnesota later today, later Monday and Monday night.
00:43Watch these thunderstorms fire up when mid to late afternoon.
00:47The area we're going to watch, roughly from Des Moines toward Omaha, back in toward Kansas.
00:53Look at those nasty thunderstorms that go going later Monday, Monday night.
00:58Now, they look linear, like a line of thunderstorms, and that tells us this is mostly going to be damaging
01:04winds, very large hail.
01:06But there will be at least a few, if not several, tornadoes, especially in that orange area where we have
01:13the moderate risk.
