BIG AUTUMN STORM

The sunny and gorgeous weather we enjoyed yesterday will disappear starting today with showers and storms moving in tonight. There is a very potent upper low spinning over the Four Corners.

It will produce feet of snow in the Rockies and then as it collides with the warm and moist air flowing off the Gulf, the storms will erupt in the middle of the U.S.

This upper low is more powerful than the last one. There is more energy rotating around it. The low will pull in the moisture and lift it rapidly leading to a severe weather outbreak.

The severe storms will start in the Texas panhandle into the Plains today.

Tomorrow we are in the slight risk area for severe weather. Main concerns will be with large hail and strong winds.

This go around the line of storms should be in and out of here so rain totals will be lower than Monday's event.

It won't clear up immediately because another low pressure system will form west of us on Friday. This low will usher in more moisture and energy which will overrun the cool air at the surface. This interaction will cause overcast skies and on and off light rain as we wrap up the week.

We are still forecasting a sunny, dry and mild Halloween weekend!
