Tornado watches and warnings were in effect across the central United States on the evening of March 10 and into the early hours of March 11, as meteorologists tracked a line of severe thunderstorms moving across the country.

Communities in Illinois and Indiana were struck by tornadoes as the storms moved through. Severe hail was reported from Texas to Illinois, and flash flooding was being reported in Michigan.

At midnight Eastern time, more than 4 million people remained under a tornado watch, according to the National Weather Service Storm Prediction Center.

At least eight people died in the United States over two days when tornadoes struck Oklahoma and southern Michigan on March 5 - 6, and the National Weather Service warns more severe weather is possible on Saturday, March 7.

A weather service team is expected to head out on the morning of March 7 to survey damage from a tornado-producing storm that ripped across a 50 mile stretch of southern Michigan on March 6, leaving four dead.

A swath of damage was reported across parts of Cass, Branch and St. Joseph counties, from Edwardsburg through Three Rivers and into Union City, the weather service reported. At least one large, “extremely dangerous” tornado was confirmed in Three Rivers, Michigan, based on preliminary reports from trained storm spotters,

In January, part of a decades-old sewer line in Maryland collapsed by the Potomac River. Over the following days, the broken pipe dumped more than 200 million gallons of raw sewage into the Potomac near Washington, D.C.

Since then, the utility that manages the line, DC Water, has been setting up a system of pumps and a steel bulkhead to divert wastewater around the broken section of pipe so crews can begin repairs. The area's drinking water hasn't been contaminated, but scientists and environmental advocates say the damage could still be severe in a watershed that stretches to the Chesapeake Bay.

"There's a ton of nasty stuff in raw sewage. It's not just waste and bacteria, but you have all sorts of pharmaceuticals that end up in the pipe system. You have different chemicals that people pour down the sink or into drains," says Gary Belan, senior director of the clean water program at American Rivers, an advocacy group. "So a lot of that stuff can sink to the bottom of the river, have impacts on fish reproduction, bird reproduction, killing a lot of the insects, contaminating the soil."

The Concrete Jungle is about to feel like an Arctic tundra.

Bone-chilling temperatures will make staying outdoors a threat to life and health this weekend in the New York metro area, meteorologists and officials said.

According to the National Weather Service, New York City and surrounding areas are likely to experience the coldest temperatures of the year so far, especially Saturday night into Sunday. The agency has issued an extreme cold warning for that period.

NWS meteorologist David Stark said an “Arctic cold front” will move in Saturday morning, bringing a brief window of snowfall before the temperatures start to plummet.

“We're going to start the day in the lower 20s, and then it looks like by early evening we could be down [to] around 10 degrees,” he said.

Lows are predicted to be around 5 degrees by early Sunday morning. They’ll be made all the worse by high gusts.

More than a dozen earthquakes rocked residents awake near San Ramon Monday morning, according to the United States Geological Survey.

The biggest quake was a notable 4.2-magnitude shaker just after 7 a.m. amid an hour-long swarm that began with a 3.9-magnitude earthquake at 6:30 a.m., according to USGS data.

Thousands of people felt the moderate shaking across the Bay Area, according to USGS’s “Did You It Feel It?” survey.

No injuries or property damage have been reported, according to KTVU..

Republicans are attempting to exempt some major polluters from paying for Pfas “forever chemical” cleanup. If successful, it could mark a major setback in US effort to rein in Pfas pollution.

The Republican-led House energy and commerce committee recently held a hearing at which it invited representatives from the water treatment and landfill industries, among others, to make the case about why they should be exempted from rules that hold polluters financially accountable for the cleanup of two types of dangerous Pfas.

Water treatment plants and landfills are major polluters and represent critical points in the effort to curb Pfas water pollution nationwide. Utilities already have to remove hundreds of chemicals, so it is unclear why they are so opposed to removing two types of Pfas, said Scott Faber, vice-president of government affairs for the Environmental Working Group non-profit.

“The only real difference is Pfas are more toxic … so the fact that water utilities and landfills are being such crybabies about Pfas says something about how little regard for public health they have,” Faber said.
