An unusually strong storm system is forecasted to bring severe weather to various regions in the U.S., including blizzard conditions in the Plains and severe storms in the South. Significant impacts include canceled Mardi Gras festivities in New Orleans and potential blazes in Texas. Meteorologists anticipate a line of strong thunderstorms developing as warm, moist air from the Gulf interacts with the cold fronts, leading to damaging gusts and possibly even tornadoes through the Southern states. The system is projected to move eastward, affecting the East Coast on Wednesday.
Marc Chenard, a meteorologist with the Weather Prediction Center, emphasized that the severe storms across the South are expected to be not just frequent but possibly very strong.
Forecasters are particularly concerned about the severe storms developing across the South, indicating that damaging gusts, hail, and even tornadoes are likely.
