Tornado watch until 10pm. The doesn't mean we will have tornadoes but conditions are favorable for one to easily form.

Severe weather is expected today but the worst is likely to stay out of the KS/OK border. Northern TX and OK are more likely to see tornadic cells or large hail. It looks like Kansas will still get heavy rain and some severe thunderstorms but the worst outbreak will likely stay south of us. We will still have a potential for thunderstorm or tornado warnings.
That being said - always stay alert and aware of the weather. It can be a whirlwind of change sometimes.
