Storms

In order to create a superstorm you need a perfect mix of conditions. These storms, though rare, cause mass chaos and destruction. But what exactly is needed for one of these storms to form?

In order for a superstorm to occur, there must be a collision between warm and cool air masses. In order for a massive hurricane to form, there must be an adequate supply of water, and air currents to start it spinning. In order for a tornado to form, you just need the two air masses to collide with enough force to set the air spinning. Blizzards are just snowstorms that have very high winds, so they form under the same conditions as a rainstorm, just much colder.

There is a warm air mass, that will collide with a cool air mass from the north west. This will result in a superstorm in the central U.S. sometime in the next two days. The storm should last about two days, and will bring heavy rainfall, thunderstorms, and possibly even tornadoes. Also, the north east U.S. can expect steady rainfall for the next week, as there is a stationary front hanging over the north east U.S.
