Federal Agency Issues Severe Weather Alert for Key Solar Eclipse Viewing Area

The National Weather Service (NWS) issued a forecast for Monday’s solar eclipse, which is slated to pass across much of the United States. However, some key areas will be obscured by clouds or even face “severe” weather.

Dallas and its surrounding locations were placed on a three out of five on the risk for severe weather due to large hail, according to the agency.
