This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for portions of central Kansas,
east central Kansas, north central Kansas, and northeast Kansas.

.DAY ONE...This Afternoon and Tonight

Gusty south winds from 20 to 30 mph with gusts up to 45 mph
through early evening.

Scattered severe storms are possible after 5 PM across north central
Kansas. These storms may form into a line as they move east southeast
this evening. Very large hail, damaging wind gusts, and a few
tornadoes are the main hazards. Localized flooding is also a
concern if storms train over areas that received heavy rain the
previous evening.

A Flood Watch remains in effect from 7 PM this evening through 7
AM Tuesday morning for areas along and north of I-70. Widespread
rainfall totals of 2-4 inches are expected with locally higher
amounts could lead to flooding.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Monday through Saturday

Gusty south winds return across the Flint Hills Monday morning and
afternoon with sustained winds of 20-30 mph and gusts upwards of
45 mph into the early evening. A Wind Advisory remains in effect
for Dickinson, Morris, Lyon, Geary and Wabaunsee counties from 9
AM to 9 PM Monday.

The greatest chance for severe weather is still shaping up to be
Monday afternoon and Monday night. There is good confidence in
storms developing over north central KS by the early evening and
move across all of northeast and east-central Kansas through the
night. Storms will be capable of producing tornadoes, very large
hail, damaging winds and flash flooding. People should be prepared
for thunderstorms impacting the area.

A Flood Watch remains in effect from 7 PM this evening through 7
AM Tuesday morning for areas along and north of I-70. Widespread
rainfall totals of 2-4 inches are expected with locally higher
amounts could lead to flooding.
