    The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a
    
    * Severe Thunderstorm Watch for portions of 
      Extreme eastern Kansas
      Western and central Missouri
    
    * Effective this Wednesday morning and afternoon from 650 AM
      until 200 PM CDT.
    
    * Primary threats include...
      Scattered large hail and isolated very large hail events to 3
        inches in diameter likely
      Scattered damaging wind gusts to 70 mph possible
    
    SUMMARY...Initially elevated thunderstorms erupting near the KS/MO
    line will pose a threat for large to very large hail through midday
    as individual cells move northeastward to eastward.  A portion of
    this activity may organize into an eastward- to
    southeastward-moving, upscale-growing cluster with increasing
    damaging-wind potential.
    
    The severe thunderstorm watch area is approximately along and 75
    statute miles north and south of a line from 15 miles west southwest
    of Olathe KS to Vichy MO. For a complete depiction of the watch see
    the associated watch outline update (WOUS64 KWNS WOU2).
    
    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.
    
    &&
    
    AVIATION...A few severe thunderstorms with hail surface and aloft to
    3 inches. Extreme turbulence and surface wind gusts to 60 knots. A
    few cumulonimbi with maximum tops to 550. Mean storm motion vector
    27030.
