The heaviest rain will extend from Dallas to Atlanta. Rain will be more isolated across the Northeast, but for areas of Vermont and Maine, that rain will be mixed with snow at times.
Over 20 million people in Southern states, like Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas, and Mississippi, may experience some strong to severe storms. The primary threats will be damaging winds and hail. If you are in a state with a severe threat, your best bet would be to vote in the morning, when the severe potential is at its lowest for the day.
The other concern for Southeastern states is the threat of flooding. Many states in that region, including Tennessee, Alabama and North Carolina, already have a saturated ground thanks to an abundance of rainfall the first two months of the year.
Several locations across these states have picked up more than a foot of rain above normal for this time of year. So even 1-2 inches of rain from this next system could trigger flash flooding in these locations.
There are 14 states holding primaries on Tuesday: Alabama, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Maine, Massachusetts, Minnesota, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Vermont and Virginia.
In 2008, Super Tuesday was stormy in the Southeast. In total, 15 states contributed to more 500 official storm reports, with 131 of those being tornado reports. Some polling locations in Tennessee and Arkansas were forced to close after several destructive tornadoes touched down.
Thankfully, that level of severe weather is not forecast this year, but it only takes one powerful storm to impact voter turnout.
