July 4th weekend could be dangerous with millions under threat as deadly storms head east - Fox Weather

Another round of severe weather is blasting states from the mid-South to the East Coast on Sunday, placing millions of people at risk of damaging wind gusts, large hail and even possible tornadoes.

This renewed threat comes one day after deadly thunderstorms produced tree damage in more than a dozen states across the mid-Mississippi and Tennessee valleys.

At least one person was killed in St. Louis after police there said a tree fell onto a car, killing the female driver. According to a report from FOX 2 in St. Louis, the woman, who was the only person in the vehicle, was sitting in her car to wait out the storm when the tree fell.

According to witnesses, the woman was responsive after the incident, but it took about 30 minutes to get through to 911. The woman later died from her injuries, FOX 2 reported.

Along the East Coast, North Carolina through Pennsylvania and New Jersey sections are under threat until 11 p.m. ET. 

And further west, a Severe Thunderstorm Watch was issued for parts of New Mexico and the Texas and Oklahoma Panhandles until 8 p.m. CT.

Severe thunderstorms that develop will be capable of producing large hail and damaging wind gusts from the mid-South and the lower Ohio and Tennessee valleys into the mid-Atlantic states.

More than 5 million people across Tennessee and Kentucky will see the highest risk of damaging winds and large hail, but those threats will also extend into cities along Interstate 95 such as Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washington.

There’s also a low risk of tornadoes across Kentucky and Tennessee.

As numerous showers and thunderstorms develop during the day and into the overnight hours, there will be a risk of flash flooding.

Flooding is possible from the Midwest through the Northeast. However, the risk is higher for people living from the Ohio Valley to New England.

Cities from Denver to Omaha, Nebraska, and Minneapolis-St. Paul will need to download the free FOX Weather app and enable notifications to be alerted to any severe weather warnings in the area.
