00:00When it comes to the weather we are talking about some unsafe or at least some
00:05Gussier threats here over the next few days as we continue to monitor that situation
00:10At ahead of this big storm that Jeff has been talking about the wind surging out of the south here
00:16And as they continue to pull north you'll see that way that most of those interstates flow east
00:22to west
00:24Winds coming out of the south towards the north going to be creating that crosswind concern
00:28So it's going to create some difficult travel there
00:30Especially for high-profile vehicles that fire risk though remaining high and on top of that we have to contend with some blowing dust
00:38Concern so it's gonna be nasty at times
00:40Just make sure you keep your guard up if you are doing any traveling across this zone
00:44And it has been so dry here even just over the past 30 days
00:48we are well below to where we would typically be by this time and
00:53Where you see some of that darker brown?
00:56That's where we have been running very abnormally dry on top of that
00:59We have that high fire risk here as we head into Wednesday
01:02When you pair the warmth when you pair the winds you get this fire weather threat
01:07Especially when there hasn't been any moisture
01:09This is going to expand that ongoing droughts and any dried out vegetation is a risk now
01:15Speaking of a risk a little bit further west we also have to talk about that severe weather threat here
01:21This is Tuesday into Tuesday night really going to be late Tuesday into the overnight hours into early Wednesday
01:28Flooding downpours going to be a threat hail and even some wind gusts
01:32But then as we head into Wednesday the storm starts to get their act together here a little bit
01:37We're gonna watch this line kind of congeal together, and we could even see a few isolated tornadoes
01:43We're not going to rule that out across the most southern tip of this line
01:47But we do have that moderate risk on the board that goes for Kansas City down i-29 flash flooding hail again
01:53Not ruling out isolated spin-ups winds howling your accurate local storm acts as high as 80 miles per hour stick with us
