    Areas affected...central to northeast Kansas into parts of northwest
    Missouri.

    Concerning...Tornado Watch 303...

    Valid 110124Z - 110300Z

    The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 303 continues.

    SUMMARY...A broken band of supercells will move eastward through the
    evening with a continued threat for all severe weather hazards.

    DISCUSSION...Several supercells are ongoing from central Kansas into
    northeast Kansas this evening. The environment remains very
    favorable across this region with ~3000 J/kg MLCAPE and ~ 50 knots
    of effective shear on the 00Z TOP RAOB. In addition, a clockwise
    turned low-level hodograph will support a continued tornado threat
    with a STP around 2 to 2.5. Surface-based instability will lessen as
    the boundary layer cools this evening, but as the low-level jet
    strengthens, low-level shear will continue to increase. Therefore,
    some tornado threat will likely persist through the evening. Tornado
    watch 303 will need to be extended a few hours to address this
    threat.=20

    Later this evening, the surface front that these storms developed
    along will move northward as a surface low deepens and moves
    northward across Kansas. As this occurs, ongoing supercells will
    likely become disconnected from the synoptic front and start to
    dissipate as CINH increases amid rising heights across the region.
