Overview
- The Wallaroos, who were staying at a Kansas City–area hotel, sheltered in interior hallways Monday night after alarms warned of a nearby tornado.
- AccuWeather reported tornadoes in Ottawa, Kansas, and Harrisonville, Missouri, with the same storm front passing over Overland Park where the team stayed.
- Players have resumed preparations for Friday night's USA test in Kansas City, with forecasts calling for thunderstorms at kickoff and high winds already disrupting training.
- Organisers face weather risk to the schedule, and Rugby365 reports the teams would likely share competition points if a cancellation prevents the match from being played.
- The tour has already been hit by severe weather during peak Tornado Alley season, as last weekend's Canada match in Sacramento was delayed and played without fans before a 24-0 loss.
