Meteorologists and former National Weather Service leaders say reducing vital weather balloon launches will degrade the accuracy of forecasts just as severe weather season kicks in.
The deadliest tornado in recorded U.S. history occurred 100 years ago. The Tri-State Tornado touched down in southeastern Missouri on March 18, 1925.
The most fatalities as of Saturday morning were in Missouri, authorities said, with at least 12 deaths.
The Burke County ban includes cooking fires with grills and smokers.
“If you have to travel this morning, just use extra caution."
Have you seen snow today?
Models have been predicting less snow over the last few days.
This winter, with record snow in New Orleans and drought and destructive wildfires in Southern California, has not been normal.
Punxsutawney Phil’s team of top-hatted associates says he has seen his shadow and is predicting six more weeks of wintry weather.
“I've seen what hurricanes can do, but not like this. I mean, I turned onto this road and just started to cry.â€Â
"One thing is for certain, it’s going to be very cold for that period, Monday through Wednesday next week," said Meteorologist Chris Horne.
 Firefighters scrambled to make further progress against wildfires that have killed 16 people in the Los Angeles area as forecasters again warned of dangerous weather this week.
