Severe Weather Ahead?
Rain is expected on Sunday, but the question remains whether severe weather will accompany it.
In Bridgeport, W.Va, a storm system is forecasted to bring much-needed rain to end the drought, as well as strong winds that could cause power disruptions.
The timing of the cold front on Sunday will determine the likelihood of severe weather. If it arrives in the afternoon or evening, severe thunderstorms with damaging winds are possible. However, an earlier arrival would likely result in mostly rain with minimal severe weather.
Think of a thunderstorm like your car engine. Air comes in, mixes with fuel, burns, then the exhaust goes out the back.
This process can be organized by winds, which separate the inflow from the outflow, allowing storms to strengthen. The main threat from these storms is damaging winds.
