US weather forecast: Tornado, large hail, heavy rain alert for Texas, Kansas, New Mexico, other states
As deadly storms leave a trail of destruction across the central US, a new wave of
severe weather
is brewing. With communities still reeling from
tornadoes
and
flooding
, forecasters are warning that more dangerous storms—bringing large hail, heavy rain, and potential tornadoes—are on the way for the South.
Severe weather threat continues across the South
A severe thunderstorm system will activate on April 22 across northeastern Kansas and Texas while penetrating New Mexico. More hazardous storms containing baseball-sized hail, torrential rainfalls, and individual tornadoes are predicted, according to AccuWeather warnings. The most devastated areas will experience substantial destruction of houses, combined with automobiles and agricultural fields.
The threat isn't short-lived. This weather system is expected to pass across the southern United States over an extended period spanning through the entire week as more intense weather conditions develop. According to forecasts, heavy rainfall will arrive at the Mississippi and Ohio valleys by April 25. Flash flooding continues to threaten areas that have not dried up after recent heavy rainfalls.

Pennsylvania wildfire scorches hundreds of acres
Firefighters in eastern Pennsylvania fight against a quickly spreading wildfire that started during the weekend. Firefighters work to contain the Packerton Fire, which runs throughout 426 acres, while people in Pennsylvania refer to it as the Jim Thorpe and Bear Mountain Fire. The firefighting teams have managed to control only 15 per cent of the wildfire, as reported on April 22.

The wildfire maintains its position near Carbon County at a distance of 80 miles southeast of Philadelphia. Wind velocities and dry brush created the perfect conditions for the fire to expand rapidly. The weakened winds do not halt the extreme dryness throughout the area. The leadership in southeast Pennsylvania declared this region at "high" danger for fire accidents.
