The National Weather Service has reduced the severe thunderstorm watch across northern areas but continues to monitor several counties until 8 p.m. CDT, the agency said.
A watch means residents should be prepared for potential severe weather. The agency advises residents to stay alert and seek shelter if storms develop.
Details on which counties are still under the watch and specific weather threats were not immediately available. Authorities recommend monitoring local weather updates for the latest information.
