SEVERE WEATHER OUTBREAK

AccuWeather meteorologists are monitoring the high risk for severe thunderstorms Tuesday into Wednesday that could cause significant business disruptions in the middle of the country. Thunderstorms will erupt from eastern Texas to Indiana late Tuesday afternoon before moving to the southeastern part of the U.S. Wednesday. 

The severe thunderstorms will bring the threat of tornadoes and damaging winds with the possibility of hail. Businesses should prepare for these dangerous storms because the sun sets earlier, and these threats can happen when it's dark out. By Wednesday, there is an AccuWeather Local StormMax™of 70 mph.
