This hazardous weather outlook is for portions of Central Kansas,
South Central Kansas and Southeast Kansas.

.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight

Numerous showers and thunderstorms are expected over southeast
Kansas this morning. Some pockets of heavy rain may lead to ponding
of water in low-lying areas.

An isolated thunderstorm or two can`t be ruled out late this
afternoon and evening, mainly west of Interstate 135. If a storm is
able to develop, severe weather is possible.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Monday through Saturday

Similar to Sunday, an isolated thunderstorm or two can`t be ruled
out late Monday afternoon and evening. If a storm is able to
develop, severe weather is possible.

Scattered thunderstorms are possible Tuesday afternoon and evening,
and possibly again Wednesday afternoon and evening over southeast
Kansas. Strong to severe thunderstorms capable of all severe
hazards are possible both days. Stay tuned as we refine forecast
details in the coming days.

Another storm system will arrive on Friday bringing the potential
for another rounds of severe storms.

Extreme grassland fire danger is possible west of a line from
Lincoln to Lyons to Harper on Monday and Tuesday during the
afternoon hours, due to very low humidity and gusty southwest winds
behind a dryline.
