Severe storms with damaging winds, hail threaten Midwest, East this week as cold front charges across US - Fox Weather

A strong cold front will charge across the Plains, Midwest and East this week and bring a variety of hazardous weather, including severe thunderstorms, flooding rainfall, high winds and a dramatic temperature drop.

Fall is considered the second severe weather season, as it's the time of year when cold air from Canada begins to spill south into the U.S. and clashes with warmer, more humid air streaming north from the Gulf of Mexico. This is exactly what the FOX Forecast Center expects will happen in the days ahead.

COLD FRONT TO USHER IN COOLER TEMPERATURES THIS WEEK FOLLOWING SEVERE WEATHER THREAT

Tuesday: Severe storms possible in Plains, Upper Midwest

A few severe thunderstorms are expected to develop from Tuesday into Tuesday night from parts of the southern and central Plains northeastward into the Upper Midwest.

Damaging wind gusts and hail are the main threats in these regions.

"Ahead of that front, we're going to have some significant moisture in the atmosphere, and we tend to get severe weather ahead of cold fronts," FOX Weather meteorologist Jason Frazer said. "So that's the reason why we remain really concerned about what's going to be happening across not only the Upper Midwest, but also across the Midwest (on Tuesday) and even across those of you in the central Plains."

Wednesday: Severe storms possible in Midwest, mid-South

Severe thunderstorms will threaten areas from the Ohio, Tennessee and mid-Mississippi valleys to the Ozarks on Wednesday.

Damaging wind gusts are the primary hazard in these regions, but there could also be large hail in portions of the mid-Mississippi Valley and Ozarks.

Thursday: Severe storms possible in the East

The cold front will reach the mid-Atlantic and Northeast by Thursday, spawning another threat of severe weather in parts of those regions.

While the exact areas that might be at risk of severe thunderstorms are still uncertain, the strongest storms will likely pose a risk of damaging wind gusts.

Flash flooding threat is greatest in the Northeast

In addition to the severe weather, the cold front will also produce areas of heavy rain as it tracks east this week.

The heaviest rain is expected in the Northeast late this week and into the weekend as moisture from both the Gulf of Mexico and the Atlantic gets pulled north into the region ahead of the cold front.

FALL DRIVING WARNING: WET LEAVES CAN BE AS SLIPPERY AS ICE

"We could see some of the heaviest rain bring in some flash flooding across the Northeast," FOX Weather meteorologist Jane Minar said. "We'll watch places like Pittsburgh, eastern Pennsylvania, up into Syracuse (New York). Even New York City, we could see a few thunderstorms come through Thursday evening."

Between 1 and 3 inches of rain is possible across the Northeast through this weekend, with localized amounts exceeding 3 inches not ruled out in parts of New England and upstate New York.

Heavy rain is also possible in portions of the Southeast on Thursday and Friday. However, that forecast remains more uncertain at this time.

High winds develop in wake of cold front

Once the cold front passes through each region this week, high winds will rush in and accompany the dramatic temperature drop, making it feel even colder than what the thermometer reads.

Wind gusts could approach 50 mph in many areas, likely bringing down much of the remaining fall foliage.
