It has already been an unsettled week across the southern U.S. with flooding and dangerous storms. The risk of powerful storms increases for the region starting Thursday, with tornadoes, hail and damaging wind gusts all being a concern. The worst weather is expected in a swath that stretches from Kansas to Texas on Thursday and from Texas to the Florida Panhandle on Friday.

A storm is set to dump a few inches of snow on Denver and will likely lead to slippery conditions in the Mile High City. Up to 3 inches of snow is forecast in parts of the Denver metro area by Friday morning, with much higher amounts expected in the mountains to the west. That is where winter storm alerts have been issued.

A series of storms that have impacted the Northeast continues into the weekend with one big difference – snow. Most of the precipitation that has fallen this week has been of the liquid variety. That could change starting Saturday night, with snow in the forecast from upstate New York to Maine.
