Severe Thunderstorm Watch

This is quite rare, but a severe thunderstorm watch has been issued for our region tonight.  What does that mean? How about wind gusts of 60 mph+, hail that is 2 inches or wider, and even the possibility of tornadoes.  Yikes.  If it materializes - and it's not clear at all if it will, certainly nothing serious yet as I write this - then that could be really destructive and cause some serious property damage.  We've had some unseasonably balmy temperatures for the last few days, so I guess this is the consequence.  And just as I finished writing this post, I just heard my first clap of thunder.  Or perhaps it was just a loud car going past.  I'm getting paranoid.  But maybe not, as I just stepped outside and the local bird life is being unnaturally noisy.  They must know something is up.
