Another round of severe storms are likely again Wednesday across some of these same locations as a marginal risk is in place yielding damaging winds being the primary concern.
The marginal risk extends north into Western Nebraska and all the way east into Dallas and Texarkana. Storms are expected to become strong to severe as we approach the afternoon hours.
