This hazardous weather outlook is for portions of central Kansas,
east central Kansas, south central Kansas and southeast Kansas.

.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight

A few severe thunderstorms are possible late this afternoon and into
the evening across the Flint Hills into southeast Kansas. Large
hail up to golf ball size and damaging wind gusts around 60 mph will
be the primary hazards.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Wednesday through Monday

Very high fire danger is possible Thursday afternoon for areas west
of Interstate 135 and on Sunday in the same location.

Thunderstorm chances return Thursday afternoon and evening across
central Kansas with an isolated large hail and strong wind gust
risk.

Additional thunderstorm chances are possible on Saturday and
Sunday. At this point there is too much uncertainty to speculate on
the coverage or severity of storms.
