Midwest on high alert

MIDWEST: In continuing sequence of Tornadoes, yet another tornado will be coming to US. The forecasters warned of a severe storm to a vast swathe of the Midwestern US.

On Friday no injuries were reported when first tornado swept into Norman, Oklahoma, site of the US national Storm Prediction Center (SPC). The 39 peoples were already killed in a sequence of tornadoes in US in the current year.

In March deadly twisters hit the states of Indiana, Kentucky, Ohio, Georgia and Alabama. In April, the Dallas-Fort Worth area was badly hit, with hundreds of flights being disrupted. The storm predicted by forecasters seems to be worst and can hit Kansas and Oklahoma on Saturday.

A warning has been already issued in eastern Nebraska and far-western Iowa, as well as south-central Kansas into west-central Oklahoma.

“We’re quite sure tomorrow will be a very busy and dangerous day in terms of large swathes of central and southern plains,” National Weather Service spokesman Chris Vaccaro told the Associated Press. “The ingredients are coming together.”
