Warnings for the United States shown
While Christmas will be white and very cold for Iowa, it is already severe for the deep south and a severe thunderstorm watch is in effect this morning. The featured chart presents the number of tornado and severe thunderstorm warnings per year since 1986 for Christmas. Having severe weather on Christmas is certainly not common with only three years having at least one warning since 1986.

Good = 31
