Another multi-day stretch of severe weather is expected to take place early this week, starting tomorrow from the ArkLaTex into the Southeast. SPC has outlined a Slight Risk (level 2/5) for this area; all hazards are possible, including large to very large hail and a couple tornadoes.

The main event comes in on Tuesday, as a widespread area of severe weather is expected from the Midwest to Texas. The most significant severe weather is forecast to occur in a bimodal distribution, with a threat for strong tornadoes and very large hail over the Missouri and Illinois vicinity, as well as an all-hazards risk over the southern Plains. However, there are still some questions that need to be answered, particularly with the southern mode. The threat shifts east on Wednesday.
