A tornado outbreak is possible Saturday, with a widespread risk of wind damage.
The storm outlook for Saturday has a moderate risk for tornadoes across northern Louisiana, southern Arkansas and into parts of Texas and Mississippi. By Ian Livingston Ian Livingston Email Bio Follow April 12 at 1:49 PM As a record-breaking late season blizzard departs after dumping one to two feet of snow in the north central United States, a new storm system threatens to deliver the next weather assault.
Strong and turning winds aloft appear to be ready to mingle with unstable air near the ground to spin up a regional tornado outbreak across parts of northern Louisiana, Arkansas, Texas and Mississippi on Saturday. Although these are the likely hot spots, some shift in the zone of highest risk is still possible.
Some population centers in the moderate risk area include Shreveport, La., as well as Greenville and Vicksburg, Miss. Believe it or not, the blizzard that just hit the Plains and Midwest is paving the way for this severe weather event. Because this first storm is lifting north into Canada rather than dragging a cold front toward the Gulf Coast, moisture over the South is able to remain in place rather than being swept away.
