The large low pressure storm system now over the Plains states is producing a variety of weather conditions from the High Plains to the Mississippi Valley this afternoon. The strong low pressure system is producing a impressive blowing dust event over Texas, that can been seen very well by visible satellite imagery from space. Northwest winds of 40-60 mph, are blowing dust over western and north-central Texas. In the satellite loop provided in this post, you can clearly see the dust wind surge blasting eastward across Texas. It’s very impressive to see such a clear view of the dry slot wind surge on the back side of the strong low pressure system.
Southeast of this low, in the warm sector, there currently is a threat for strong tornadoes with Supercells, large hail and strong straight-line winds. The Mississippi Valley and South, will continue into the evening overnight hours with widespread severe weather.
On the northern side of this storm system, there are elevated severe storms with hail and isolated short-lived tornadoes. Further north and west, you can find blizzard conditions over the colder locations, with heavy snow and blowing snow in 50-60 mph winds. Eastern Colorado, Western Kansas, and Nebraska are all seeing winter conditions today.
Be sure to view the satellite loop including in this post as it shows all the different weather conditions and the impressive blowing dust wind surge in Texas.
