From AccuWeather –

This region has been no stranger to severe weather as of late, with more than 100 confirmed tornadoes, some deadly, and over 1,000 incidents of severe weather reported since April 25. That tally is sure to grow in the coming days.

AccuWeather Chief On-Air Meteorologist Bernie Rayno

“We are probably looking at dozens of tornadoes being produced during the severe weather outbreak from Monday to Tuesday.”

By Tuesday and Tuesday night, while the severe weather and tornado threat will shift largely out of the central Plains, it will impact millions more from Arkansas to Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio and western Pennsylvania, including in the metropolitan areas of Chicago, Indianapolis and St. Louis.
