Several US states issue tornado and strong winds warning as catastrophic storm threatens power outages, flight delays

Hindustan Times  

A huge winter storm on Tuesday swept across the central U.S., bringing with it severe winds, rain, and snow, disrupting Mardi Gras Day celebrations in New Orleans and causing power cuts in several places. ‘Biggest threat will be damaging wind gusts’ In an online forecast, Tyler Roys, a senior meteorologist for AccuWeather, stated that “As these thunderstorms roar eastward, the biggest threat will be damaging wind gusts, especially in Arkansas, Louisiana and western Mississippi.” He also mentioned that the region may experience “widespread gusts of up to 80 mph” and some may even reach 100 mph. The agency also issued a warning for “critical fire weather” in the Dallas area because of Tuesday's strong winds and low humidity. Flight delays averaged two hours, as per the Federal Aviation Administration, “due to wind.” “Strong storms this morning are leading to hazardous road conditions around the metro area,” the airport said in a statement on X.
