A band of extreme weather will stretch across the middle of the United States from March 15 to March 16, delivering blizzard conditions to Wisconsin and Michigan, possible tornado conditions to the Mississippi and Ohio River Valleys, and thunderstorms across the Southeast.

Forecast models indicated that a low-pressure cyclone would form over Iowa on the morning of March 15. It is predicted to move east across the Great Lakes toward Canada through March 16, whipping a broad band of rain across the Great Plains, Midwest, Appalachia, Deep South, and New England and forming a wall of extreme weather that stretches from Ontario to the Gulf of America.
