Morris and Wabaunsee are one of a number of counties in Kansas in a severe thunderstorm watch until midnight. The watch does not include Junction City or Manhattan.

Earlier, a severe thunderstorm moved near Dwight and into the Alta Vista, Volland, and Alma areas. Just after 7 p.m. a trained weather spotter reported 60 mph winds two miles south of Alma. The severe thunderstorm warning for that storm was allowed to expire at 7:30 p.m. because the storm had weakened.
