This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for south central Nebraska and
portions of north central Kansas.

.DAY ONE...Tonight.

Through the overnight hours, scattered to numerous thunderstorms
will affect much of our Nebraska area, with much lower chances
for storms in north central Kansas. Some of these storms will
develop directly over our area, while others roll in from the
west. Storms will be a mix of individual storms initially this
evening, along with a larger scale complex of storms likely to
arrive after midnight.

Some storms this evening and overnight will be severe, and most
of our Nebraska area is under a Severe Thunderstorm Watch until
midnight, with an additional Watch possible later in the night.
The primary threats with any severe storms will be damaging winds
up to around 70 MPH, and large hail up to around golf ball size.
However, there could also be a low chance for tornado development.

In addition, much of especially our Nebraska coverage area will
likely receive widespread rainfall between 1 and 3 inches through
sunrise Tuesday, with localized higher amounts possible in narrow
swaths, although it is not yet clear exactly where these might
be. A Flood Watch has been issued for most of our Nebraska area.
Please refer to the Watch statement for more details.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Tuesday through Sunday.

On Tuesday daytime, mainly between 9 AM and and 1 PM, one final
round of strong to perhaps severe thunderstorms could sweep
across parts of the area from west to east, again favoring
Nebraska counties more so than Kansas. Most of our area is under
a
Marginal to Slight Risk for severe storms. The main hazards with
any severe storms would be hail up to around the size of ping
pong
balls, and damaging winds up to around 60 MPH...in addition to
the continued chance for more heavy rain and localized
flooding...and the Flood Watch for much of our Nebraska area
remains in effect until 1 PM. After 1 PM, any risk for severe
storms and heavy rain will have departed east of our area.

Between late Wednesday night and Sunday, there are various,
intermittent chances for thunderstorms in the forecast. Severe
storms are not currently expected with most of these chances, but
early indications suggest that Thursday evening or overnight
could bear watching for a possible, limited threat.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Spotters are encouraged to report any instances of severe weather
or potential flooding this evening and overnight.
