Weather hazards expected... Limited hail risk. Limited thunderstorm wind damage risk. Elevated lightning risk. Elevated excessive rainfall risk DISCUSSION... A line of storms has developed across south central Kansas this afternoon and will move to the southeast late this evening into tonight. Localized damaging winds gusts up to 60 mph may be possible with the strongest portions of this line generally along and west of Interstate 49. Additional scattered storms may move south into portions of the area tonight generally north of Interstate 44. Gusty winds up to 50 mph and small hail will be possible with a few of the strongest storms. Not all locations will be affected by this activity. Locally heavy rainfall and localized flooding will also be a risk with these storms especially along and west of Interstate 49. The flooding risk will be highest in areas near Nevada where rivers are already various stages of flooding. A Flood Watch is in effect for these areas tonight. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Thursday through Tuesday. Multiple storm chances continue Wednesday through Monday. Some days may exhibit a severe threat, but exact details are uncertain at this time. Our western counties are within a Marginal (1/5) risk for severe weather Wednesday and Thursday. Each round of rain will bring the chance of additional flooding, especially if falling over already rain-stressed areas like around Nevada. The WPC has us in a Slight (2/4) risk for excessive rainfall Thursday. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... Spotter activation will not be needed through tonight. && More detailed information can be accessed at: http://www.weather.gov/sgf/dsspacket This product in graphical format...along with other weather... hydrological and climate information...at http://www.weather.gov/sgf $$ Wise
