A wide-reaching severe weather threat, from the Midwest to the Gulf Coast, will put millions of people in harm's way on Monday.

Damaging winds will be the most prevalent threat on Monday. This threat will include cities from St. Louis, Mo. to Louisville, Ky. to Little Rock, Ark. and New Orleans.

Some of the most violent thunderstorms in this zone will unleash large hail and even tornadoes.

"Northern Mississippi will be at the greatest risk for tornadoes on Monday," AccuWeather Enterprise Solutions Storm Warning Meteorologist Justin Pullin said. "The higher risk could extend a little farther north to include Memphis, Tenn. as well."

2. Thanks for the post...Stay Safe DU'ers...

It's moving to the ECoast so those of us here will probably be affected. Tornado damage in three towns in NC..Friday from another system.

More on the way. Good to keep this kicked since it's a large slow-moving weather event some of us will be affected.
