Preliminary local storm reports (PLSRs) of 2-inch and larger hail from March 10, 2026 and the Storm Prediction Center Day 1 Convective Outlook Hail Probability Verification (with conditional intensities)
Absurd heat! Despite our best efforts, the monster heat dome is bound to be "undersold" by the meteorology community. Why? Because intensity like this is almost never seen. This thing has the potential to be Epic for Mid-March, and not in a good way… 1/
Weather West update on a prolonged and very likely record-breaking March heatwave in the western U.S. that will begin Thursday in some areas & actually not reach its peak for another 7-10 days in some spots. This forecast is truly extraordinary for March.
Destructive storms tore through the Central US yesterday evening and last night, including damaging tornadoes in the Midwest.
Severe thunderstorms continue to fire up across the country, as there is another severe weather risk in place for the Eastern US today.

The Gulf of Mexico is running a severe fever... it's the warmest it has ever been for this date. 🥵
the warmest it's ever been in March in Fort Collins is 81°F. at this point, it seems like the question is not whether this will be broken next week, but how many times and by how much. 🫠#cowx

The pattern next week is truly going to be extreme. A record breaking heat dome is forecast for the West with cities like Palm Springs and Phoenix likely to break monthly March records (possibly by a long shot) while the East sees a late season cold blast. It’s going to be wild.

MRMS rotation tracks product showing track of tornadic storm that cross east central IL and northwest IN.
With MRMS rotation tracks we can very clearly see the path of the low level rotation associated with the intense tornado that impacted areas just south of Kankakee and then moved across the IN border. Looks like initial rotation may have turned N and new circ formed as the storm was crossing I-65.
Hancock Hit at 943pm on Tuesday night in Chicago.
An impressive view of the tornadic supercell that produced massive hail in Illinois earlier today.
When's the last time you saw a Tornado Watch bisecting the entire country from Lake Michigan to the border of Mexico?

This may be the state record if confirmed!
Sunny with a chance of #tephra showers. The 43rd eruption at #Kilauea since Dec 2024 is leaving it’s mark with lofted rock fragments raining out along local roadways. Per USGS some are as small as coins to nearly as large as footballs near Halema’uma’u crater 3/10/2026
