   URGENT - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED
   Severe Thunderstorm Watch Number 199
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   645 PM CDT Sun May 7 2023

   The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a

   * Severe Thunderstorm Watch for portions of 
     Southwest Iowa
     Northern Kansas
     Northwest Missouri
     Central and Eastern Nebraska

   * Effective this Sunday night and Monday morning from 645 PM
     until 100 AM CDT.

   * Primary threats include...
     Scattered damaging winds likely with isolated significant gusts
       to 80 mph possible
     Scattered large hail likely with isolated very large hail events
       to 3 inches in diameter possible
     A tornado or two possible

   SUMMARY...Severe thunderstorms are expected to develop and quickly
   increase this evening initially across northern Kansas and
   south-central Nebraska. Some initial supercells capable of very
   large hail can be expected. Some tornado risk may materialize later
   this evening, but the potential for damaging winds should become the
   most prominent hazard with the likelihood that a well-organized
   cluster/MCS develops and moves east-southeastward across the region
   later this evening into the overnight.

   The severe thunderstorm watch area is approximately along and 80
   statute miles north and south of a line from 50 miles north of Hill
   City KS to 35 miles east southeast of Shenandoah IA. For a complete
   depiction of the watch see the associated watch outline update
   (WOUS64 KWNS WOU9).

   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.
