The setup Friday through the weekend is a dangerous one in parts of the South, Midwest and East. Some tornadoes could be strong and widespread damaging winds are also a major threat.

The Storm Prediction Center includes much of the area in an Enhanced Risk for severe thunderstorms on Friday afternoon and evening. Our far southeastern counties (shaded in red) are included in a Moderate Risk, indicating an even higher threat for severe weather.

A multi-day severe weather outbreak is set to bring tornadoes, flash flooding and damaging winds from the Midwest to the South to the East Coast.
