intensify this afternoon into the early evening across the Watch
area. The stronger storms, including the possibility for a few
supercells, will potentially be capable of large to very large hail
and severe gusts. A few small clusters may eventually evolve
towards late afternoon and early evening near the Colorado-Kansas
border and pose an increasing threat for severe gusts.

statute miles east and west of a line from 20 miles south of Clayton
NM to 50 miles north of Akron CO. For a complete depiction of the
watch see the associated watch outline update (WOUS64 KWNS WOU6).
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

weather conditions and listen for later statements and possible
warnings. Severe thunderstorms can and occasionally do produce
tornadoes.
