   Areas affected...Portions of north-central and Northeast Kansas

   Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 445...

   Valid 170231Z - 170330Z

   The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 445
   continues.

   SUMMARY...A line of storms in north-central and northeast Kansas is
   expected to slowly weaken over the next few hours.

   DISCUSSION...The line of storm in Riley and Clay counties has shown
   warming cloud tops over the past hour with radar echo tops also
   decreasing. Expect this trend to continue as the storms move into an
   increasingly capped and stable environment. Storms may continue with
   severe or near severe winds for the next hour, but likely won't
   persist at severe limits much beyond that and the watch will likely
   be able to be cancelled before the 05Z expiration time.
