From UPI:
The risk of severe thunderstorms, some capable of triggering tornadoes, will expand along the Eastern Seaboard and reach across much of the southern United States on Thursday, AccuWeather meteorologists warn.
While the intensity of the thunderstorms may not be as ferocious as many that erupted in the Midwest and Great Plains earlier in the week, there is still the likelihood that some of the strongest storms will be capable of producing a few tornadoes. Approximately 80 million people live within the anticipated zone of severe weather on Thursday and Thursday night.
