A tornado watch was issued at 4:30pm. The NWS has updated its tornado forecast by adding an area in Kansas and Nebraska.  The area in brown has a significant risk of tornadoes. Where you see hatching means any tornado could be strong (≥EF-2 intensity). I'll keep an eye on this for you and will post any tornado watch(es) here on the blow with storm updates on Twitter/X   @usweatherexpert.
