This is going to be a busy week of severe weather starting Sunday and lasting through Wednesday, perhaps into Thursday. The first rounds will hit Sunday and Monday as a cold front comes through the East. The next rounds hit the Plains Monday, Mississippi Valley Tuesday and the Ohio Valley Wednesday. A last round could hit the Northeast Thursday. Each of these events will include damaging winds, large hail and perhaps a few tornadoes. The number of tornadoes is running below normal so it’s not out of the question that that the number rises about normal after this week.

Snow is the other issue later this week. Snow will come down the Front Range of the Rockies and may impact Denver by the end of the week.
