Severe thunderstorms

Severe thunderstorms have rapidly developed late this afternoon in a line from Ottawa, Kansas, northeastward into Iowa. This line has stalled and will likely take a whileto get moving. Here is the watch map below:

The main threats right now is large hail and damaging winds, but a tornado cannot be ruled out. Flooding will also be a concearn with this as these are stalled and training over the same locations. I wont be able to post a new entry until about 1 AM. So until then expect showers and strong to severe thundrstorms around the area through the evening. Expect a new blog later tonight.
