Storms Forecast to Track to the West Over the Great Plains Beginning Tuesday

Several days of severe storms are going to impact the Great Plains as the month of May comes to an end. Here is a look at what you can expect in the coming days over the Plains states as well as a recap of the deadly storm events over the weekend.

Latest Death Toll From Weekend Storms Stands at 21

The good news is that the focus of the severe weather this week will train over more rural areas when compared to the storms that slammed through the region over the weekend, killing at least 21 people. The bad news is that the upcoming line of storms could be just as intense as what neighboring states in the central U.S. experienced over the Memorial Day holiday weekend.

Forecasters are predicting that the overall threat of widespread severe weather will take it down a notch over the central part of the nation this week. However, keep in mind that it only takes one tornado outbreak to put lives at risk. This was demonstrated this weekend when a rash of tornados killed at least 21 people in the nation's heartland.
