   statute miles north and south of a line from 20 miles southwest of
   Garden City KS to 20 miles north of Topeka KS. For a complete
   depiction of the watch see the associated watch outline update

   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.
