PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS: Remember, a Severe Thunderstorm WATCH just means that conditions are favorable for severe thunderstorms in and close to the watch area. People 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.
