   URGENT - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED
   Severe Thunderstorm Watch Number 390
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   225 PM CDT Tue Jun 4 2024

   The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a

   * Severe Thunderstorm Watch for portions of 
     Central and Northeast Kansas

   * Effective this Tuesday afternoon and evening from 225 PM until
     900 PM CDT.

   * Primary threats include...
     Scattered large hail and isolated very large hail events to 2
       inches in diameter possible
     Scattered damaging wind gusts to 70 mph possible

   SUMMARY...A broken band of thunderstorms will probably continue to
   pose a risk for large hail and severe gusts across parts of central
   Kansas through the afternoon.  As this activity moves east, a severe
   threat will possibly move into northeast portions of Kansas. 
   Additional isolated thunderstorms over south-central Kansas may
   develop later this afternoon into the evening and yield a threat for
   large hail and severe gusts.

   The severe thunderstorm watch area is approximately along and 60
   statute miles east and west of a line from 60 miles north of
   Manhattan KS to 10 miles southwest of Wichita KS. For a complete
   depiction of the watch see the associated watch outline update
   (WOUS64 KWNS WOU0).

   PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

   REMEMBER...A Severe Thunderstorm Watch means conditions are
   favorable for severe thunderstorms in and close to the watch area.
   Persons in these areas should be on the lookout for threatening
   weather conditions and listen for later statements and possible
   warnings. Severe thunderstorms can and occasionally do produce
   tornadoes.
