Got this email from the National weather service......thought I would give a 
heads-up.

Importance: High

All,

Please keep a close eye on Thursday's weather. There is good potential
for a major severe weather outbreak. You'll see a precursor with a
widespread outbreak in the Plains States Wednesday. If this bears out,
we will plan for a teleconference call Thursday morning. I'll send phone
number and passcode at that time.

At this moment, a warm front will push north across Indiana during the
day Thursday (morning south, afternoon north) with widespread rain and
isolated thunderstorms. This part is not expected to be severe, but will
prime the pump for Thursday evening. A cold front will push east across
Indiana, around dark in the west, and late evening east. The cold front
will trigger a major squall line ahead of it with damaging straight line
winds and possibly embedded tornadoes. Isolated supercells producing
tornadoes are a distinct possibility prior to the squall line arrival.

This may be comparable to the Veteran's Day outbreak of 2003, the
Evansville event of November 05, or the event of Nov 15, 2005.

_A big caution in that forecasts may change_, but it's important that
you begin preparing now, preparing your staff for potential work, and
your other emergency responders for possible over time.

I will be out of the office Wednesday but you're welcome to call here if

you'd like; we've got staff able to answer questions. You can keep
track of concerns at: http://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/outlook/
