The National Weather Service released a tornado warning at 8:26 p.m. on Monday in effect until 9 p.m. for Platte County.

Much of the state is expected to experience a moderate risk of tornadoes with a current severe thunderstorm warning in effect.

In what has historically been known as Tornado Alley — a designation that typically includes Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas — the peak of tornado season is May into early June. But the season starts earlier in what's often called Dixie Alley, made up of southern states such as Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Georgia.

Tornadoes struck the Midwest over the weekend, hitting cities and towns in Kansas and Missouri. And one snarl on I-70 left experts concerned about tornado safety.

"Severe thunderstorms capable of all severe hazards remain possible this evening across portions of the central and southern Plains," a forecast from the National Weather Service's Storm Prediction Center (SPC) said. "Several strong to intense tornadoes are possible," it added.

Gov. Andy Beshear praised the Trump administration’s response to a deadly tornado in his state, even as he worried about cuts at NWS.

Forecasters warned Monday that more tornados and storms were possible in the central U.S. as people from Texas to Kentucky cleaned up from severe weather that has killed more than two dozen people in four days.

The National Weather Service and AccuWeather both warn of severe weather that could affect the Southeast region, though forecasts remain uncertain.

Storm damage experts have long warned against the misguided practice of parking under overpasses during severe storms or tornadoes. Not only is it dangerous to the countless other people stuck behind parked drivers, but the practice is also extremely dangerous for people under the overpass.

The mayor of St. Louis said Monday that the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) hasn’t yet provided assistance on the ground—three days after a devastating tornado caused more than $1 billion in damage.
