As a cold front gains momentum, severe thunderstorms, many packing high wind gusts, will erupt and roll from the eastern Great Lakes, Ohio Valley and middle Mississippi Valley to the Appalachians and Atlantic Seaboard into Wednesday and beyond in some cases, AccuWeather meteorologists warn.
The storms can trigger regional power outages and lead to major travel delays as they approach and pass through the major metro areas. Tree and property damage will be likely in some communities.
In recent days, severe storms have packed quite a wallop in the Midwest and part of the interior Northeast. During Monday night alone, hundreds of incidents of high winds and wind damage occurred from Iowa to Illinois and Indiana as a large complex of severe thunderstorms covered hundreds of miles and triggered at least one report of a tornado in the Chicago area.
AccuWeather meteorologists believe the complex met the National Weather Service definition of a derecho where there were consistent incidents of high wind gusts (58 mph or greater) over a distance of at least 400 miles. Close to 300,000 utility customers were without power from Iowa to Illinois and Indiana in the wake of the storms, according to poweroutage.us.

We’ve never experienced a few hot days followed by a thunderstorm before. It’s unprecedented, an obvious consequence of capitalism and racism.
HA! Good one!
You work with retards.
LMAO
But...
Day 2 of 100 degrees here in western N.J. Not much rain lately either. Another scorcher tomorrow, then relief and rain. Getting tired of watering the veggies, sometimes twice a day.
I remember back in the 1960s the local weather would call this a Tropical Heat Wave.
When did all of this hyperventilating over the weather happen?
The United States has the most volatile weather on the planet, aside from Antarctica obviously.
Do people remember the Great Schoolhouse Blizzard of 1888?
The winter of 1978?
Tell them they can set the example by walking or riding their bike to work.
Oherwise, button up.
It hit 103 in NYC on July 3, 1966.
I recall the heat waves of 1988 and 1995
Brandon does
Hammonton is having their procession this afternoon. The Verdi band has already canceled.
Are the climate change people are aware of 5,000,000,000 years of earth’s existence? Are they aware of horrific changes in weather for Billions of years, long before Lucy the hominid climbed down from a tree in Olduvai gorge in Africa?
Are they aware earth’s axis of rotation has changed significantly? I bet they do not know Sahara Desert was once a lush tropical paradise and was an ocean? Greenland was also full of woods at one time.
Recorded climate history is barely a couple of millennium old. That is 0.00006% of Earth’s existence. It is height of ignorance to extrapolate climate based on 0.00006% data.
And climate NEVER changes!
Right??????
Release the storms!
110° a few days ago in southern Oregon
Hottest I remember was 119°, over 20 years ago.
Only got below freezing two days this past winter.
Climate change DOES happen— THANK GOD!8)
Irving Berlin being prophetic in 1933
We’re having a heat wave,
A tropical heat wave,
The temperature’s rising,
It isn’t surprising,
She certainly can can-can.
She started a heat wave
By letting her seat wave
In such a way that
The customers say that
She certainly can can-can.
Gee, her anatomy
Makes the mercury
Jump to ninety-three.
We’re having a heat wave,
A tropical heat wave,
The way that she moves
That thermometer proves
That she certainly can can-can.
