Northern Ohio Tornado Outbreak Recap

Late October into November is considered a second severe weather season across the eastern US. Storm systems get stronger, deeper and more frequent as the jet stream strengthens. Large temperature variations over the central US, Great Lakes and Ohio Valley are increasing as cold fronts start to bring down colder air.
