   Areas affected...southeast NE...northeast KS

   Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 346...

   Valid 090451Z - 090615Z

   The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 346
   continues.

   SUMMARY...Severe squall line will continue east-southeast.  Gusts
   60-75 mph are possible.

   DISCUSSION...Radar mosaic shows a mature bowing squall line moving
   east-southeast at 44 kt over central NE moving into southeast NE and
   into northern KS as of 1145pm CDT.  The Grand Island ASOS recently
   measured a 62-kt gust at 1134pm.  Despite gradual near-surface
   cooling, upper 60s F dewpoints reside across southeast NE and
   northeast KS.  As a result, moderate instability will continue to
   support the severe squall line into far southeast NE/northeast KS. 
   A watch extension-in-area or an additional severe thunderstorm watch
   may be considered (depending on trends over the next few hours) to
   the southeast of severe watch 346 across northeast KS, including the
   greater Kansas City metro.
